[patches] E500 port

[Kumar Gala <galak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Joseph,

I saw your post about e500 support in eglibc and that's great.  I was  
planning on looking into getting Aldy's glibc-2.3 patch building  
against glibc-2.5 but it sounds like you've pretty much got that  
working.

I'm trying to get a crosstool based environment with gcc-4.1.x and  
glibc-2.5 working for e500 (both versions).  It sounds like there are  
a number of fun hoops to jump through for this:
1. get a gcc-4.1.x snapshot as there are some number of ppc related  
bugs in gcc-4.1.1
2. need patches for long double ?? is this just an eglibc requirement?
3. some additional patches for gcc-4.1.x for e500?

Any help in getting this going would be appreciated.  I'd be happy to  
look into implementing the kernel side trap handling and fixup if I  
can get an environment working to show the issues.  [Wasn't sure if  
you aware there isn't any code today that does this]

thanks
