Comment(by erikd):

 The patch I just attached (0001-Fix-compiling-on-linux-powerpc.patch)
 fixes the compile issue in rtc/Linker.c for linux-powerpc.

 This patch has also been tested on an x86_64-linux system and I ran the
 full validate script successfully. Validate couldn't run on powerpc-linux
 because other bugs exist.

 I would like to see this patch applied and this bug closed so I can raise
 a bug about then other powerpc-linx bug(s).
