I ran into the same problem several days ago, and I have analyzed this
bug.  The problem is in sim/ppc/sim_calls.c, functions sim_fetch_register
and sim_store_register.  These functions call the macro REGISTER_NAME,
and a multi-arch change broke REGISTER_NAME in the simulator.

The PowerPC simulator maintainer has sent me a patch to try.  We hope
to fix it in sourceware very soon.

I don't have any help for your other problems, sorry.
