--- Comment #1 from Andi Kleen <andi-gcc at firstfloor dot org> ---
Yes it is known that powerpc (or some flavors of it) has poor tail call support
due to ABI limitations.
Just need to figure out how to skip the test. I guess it needs a better test in
check_effective_target_tail_call
Maybe this patch will help. The drawback is that it will disable any tail call
testing on these targets however.
