+The powerpc-cpu directory is an add-on for the GNU C Library (glibc).
+It provides additional platform/cpu specific optimizations when the
+--with-cpu= configure option is specified. Specifying --with-
cpu=<cpu_type>
+on the configure implicitly inserts the -mcpu=<cpu_type> option
for gcc
+commands in the glibc make. It also inserts <cpu_type> specific
directories
+into the source search path for glibc.
Is there any motion on this? We'd be interested in adding similar
functionality for e500 and 74xx, and this would help in that endeavor.
