Dear Ben Warren,

Based on my limited understanding, it seems this should be a valid prefix. If you have a moment, can you explain why it's not? In my installation everything seems to point to 'powerpc-linux-*':

I already explained this.

For details, please see the documentation; see especially section "3.6.A Table of possible values for $CROSS_COMPILE" at http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDKUsage#CrossCompileValues

(note that this table does not mention all implications / effects of chosing CROSS_COMPILE - there are other compiler optiones affected as well, i. e. things like -mfloat-gprs, -mspe, -mabi, etc.).

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
