As Andrew Pinski mentioned, you also can use -mcpu=970 -mno-altivec. That should allow the assembler to accept Altivec instructions, but GCC will not know about any Altivec registers for inlined assembly parameters.
As I and Ben found out that does not work, altivec is still turned on
and there is no way to turn it off. Alan has a patch which he is going
to post (again) on my request to fix the problem with "-mcpu=power4 -maltivec",
I don't know if -mno-altivec will work though.
Thanks, Andrew Pinski
