Unknown relocation type 182, 183

Hi

We are in the process of trying to compile and build a system originally 
written with the Diab compiler suite
for the PowerPC 823 CPU. So far we have had good success. 

Now, when we try to link one of the binary only library archives that we 
have to our system compiled
and linked using gcc-3.4.0 we get the following error from the linker:
powerpc-eabi-ld: /path/to/libx.a(xxx.o): unknown relocation type 182 for 
symbol asdf
powerpc-eabi-ld: /path/to/libx.a(xxx.o): unknown relocation type 183 for 
symbol asdf

These relocation types are registered in elf.h as
/* Diab tool relocations.  */
#define R_PPC_DIAB_SDA21_HA     182     /* like EMB_SDA21, adjusted high 
16 */
#define R_PPC_DIAB_RELSDA_LO    183     /* like EMB_RELSDA, but lower 16 
bit */

so they are known. Are they not implemented in ld?
Is our cross compile tool chain wrongly configured (host i686-linux, 
target powerpc-eabi)?
Is this a bug?

Any hints or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
  David
