Wolfgang,
Taking Junita Ajith junita_ppc@yahoo.com suggestion, here is a patch to the MPC85XX ADS and CDS config.mk file to add the -mno-string option. Verifed working using gcc version 3.3.3 (Yellow Dog Linux 3.3.3-16.ydl.4).
Thanks, jdl
* Patch by Jon Loeliger, 14-Dec-2004: Force MPC85xx build to use -mno-string as e500 core doesn't implement string instructions.
