Compiling 3.2 For powerpc-vtx-aix

[sudesh ram <sudesh dot ram at thales-tts dot com>]

Hi,

I am trying to get a cross compiler built from the GCC 3.2 sources,
where
host = i686-cygwin
target = powerpc-vtx-aix

I know that the powerpc-vtx-aix isn't a very common architecture, as
I have only ever encountered it at work. I have a gcc2.95 version
that is setup and working for this target type, and for the same
host.

I have built bin-utils 2.13 from sources for the powerpc-vtx-aix
architecture successfully, but when I try to build GCC 3.2 it fails
during the assembler stage. I end up getting a lot of:
undefined operand style messages. The exact errors and commands used
are given at the end.

The configure script locates the correct assembler and linker
(powerpc-vtx-aix-...) but its like the assembler doesn't have a clue
about the instruction codes.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as my head really hurts.

Thank you

Sudesh

Commands invoked:
./configure --host=i686-cygwin --target=powerpc-vtx-aix
