I'm curious about an anomaly I just noticed in the newly-gone elfppc.sc. It
references crtbegin.o and crtend.o. However for the target powerpc-eabi,
the files that provide __CTOR_LIST__ etc. are actually ecrti.o and ecrtn.o.

Is there any reason that powerpc-eabi-gcc doesn't use crtstuff?

Or should ld parameterize crtbegin.o/crtend.o so that the names can be
overridden?
