Actually this one leads to:

  /home/michael/linux/arch/powerpc/kernel/head_8xx.S: Assembler messages:
  /home/michael/linux/arch/powerpc/kernel/head_8xx.S:151: Error: attempt to 
move .org backwards
  make[3]: *** [/home/michael/linux/scripts/Makefile.build:348: 
arch/powerpc/kernel/head_8xx.o] Error 1

For mpc885_ads_defconfig.

That's the alignment exception overflowing into the program check
handler:

/* Alignment exception */
        . = 0x600
Alignment:
        EXCEPTION_PROLOG handle_dar_dsisr=1
        save_dar_dsisr_on_stack r4, r5, r11
        li      r6, RPN_PATTERN
        mtspr   SPRN_DAR, r6    /* Tag DAR, to be used in DTLB Error */
        addi    r3,r1,STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD
        EXC_XFER_STD(0x600, alignment_exception)

/* Program check exception */
        EXCEPTION(0x700, ProgramCheck, program_check_exception, EXC_XFER_STD)


Can't see an obvious/easy way to fix it.

cheers
