Sorry, I meant the gcc patch. I'm not sure if this has been
committed
to FSF head or not.
If that's the case it would be a good idea to suggest a command line
option to disable the new out-of-line code generation feature of that
patch.
But if the stubs it calls are really simple, you can just add
implementations under arch/powerpc/lib/, and therefore it's
not such a big deal. This is what we've traditionally done
with libcalls generated by gcc for runtime support.
They are pretty simple.

I've got a toolchain from CodeSourcery that has the GCC change in it
and was posting this as preemptive for the point in time when FSF GCC
has it. At which point the whole discussion about why don't we just
link libgcc started up :)
