-mppc question

[Aldy Hernandez]

Hi folks!

>From sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/Makefile:

     +cflags += -Wa,-mppc -mpowerpc
     asm-CPPFLAGS += -Wa,-mppc

is there a reason we send these switches (particularly -mppc), when
GCC defaults to sending -mppc?

I'm working on a port in which GCC passes -mspe, but the -mppc in
GLIBC's makefile overrides  my -mspe.
