First, I am trying to have IBM contribute an AIX system to the GCC Compile Farm.

I am not sure what you mean by 32 bit PowerPC target?  Yes, AIX
defaults to building 32 bit applications, but 32 bit PowerPC
processors are quite different (both Freescale processors and other
PPC32 targets). And AIX does not support ELF, sdata, sdata2, etc. that
are referenced in many of those testcases.

Thanks, David
