The 'gcc' installed by Xcode builds Mach-O binaries, not ELF binaries. You therefore need a cross-compiler and `./config/scripts/switcharch cross-ppc`.<div><br></div><div>I compiled the following in order, all of which were the latest stable versions:<div><br></div><div>GMP 4.3.1 - note: on ppc64 host supply ABI=mode32 to its configure script or it may build a 64-bit library that gcc later chokes on</div><div>MPFR 2.4.1</div><div>binutils 2.20</div><div>GCC 4.4.2</div><div><br></div><div>For GCC configure options please refer to Blue Swirl's post.
