But I can make some tests on real hardware not before monday.
This is what I can say after compiling with both toolchains. 1. redundant env CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_6xx- ARCH=powerpc sh MAKEALL mvblm7 text data bss dec hex filename 233298 21940 66960 322198 4ea96 ./u-boot CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-angstrom-linux- ARCH=powerpc sh MAKEALL mvblm7 text data bss dec hex filename 233758 21948 66956 322662 4ec66 ./u-boot 2. without redundant env swa@swa-m460:~/u-boot$ CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_6xx- ARCH=powerpc sh MAKEALL mvblm7 text data bss dec hex filename 232494 21912 66960 321366 4e756 ./u-boot swa@swa-m460:~/u-boot$ CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-angstrom-linux- ARCH=powerpc sh MAKEALL mvblm7 text data bss dec hex filename 232954 21920 66956 321830 4e926 ./u-boot size of final u-boot binary differs by 8 bytes ... sounds promising ;-) Will run both versions asap.
