Building 5.0.0 for ppc

  • Built 5.0.0 for ppc
  • Studying CVS

I was under a mistaken assumption that I needed to have a PPC machine in order to do this and was waiting for one. Thu informed me that I could build 5.0.0 for cross and even rebuild the toolchain cross - that I wouldn't need a ppc machine until I needed to build a native gcc.

Building for ppc takes a long time as our ppc machines are slow and there's a lot more to build for ppc.
