------- Comment #8 from pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org 2006-05-16 17:34 ------- The only thing I think we can do is warn that -mpowerpc64 might not work with Linux as the linux kernel does not save and restore the full register while doing a context switch (it is one reason why -mcpu=G5 -m32 does not turn on -mpowerpc64 on Linux).
