Hi all,

 1) As we might know, Gentoo has powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu compiler

address@hidden ~ $ powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -v

Using built-in specs.

COLLECT_GCC=/usr/powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/5.3.0/powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc

COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/usr/libexec/gcc/powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu/5.3.0/lto-wrapper

Target: powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu

Configured with: /var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-5.3.0/work/gcc-5.3.0/configure --host=powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu --build=powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/5.3.0 --includedir=/usr/lib/gcc/powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu/5.3.0/include --datadir=/usr/share/gcc-data/powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu/5.3.0 --mandir=/usr/share/gcc-data/powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu/5.3.0/man --infodir=/usr/share/gcc-data/powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu/5.3.0/info --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/lib/gcc/powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu/5.3.0/include/g++-v5 --with-python-dir=/share/gcc-data/powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu/5.3.0/python --enable-languages=c,c++,fortran --enable-obsolete --enable-secureplt --disable-werror --with-system-zlib --enable-nls --without-included-gettext --enable-checking=release --with-bugurl=https://bugs.gentoo.org/ --with-pkgversion='Gentoo 5.3.0 p1.0, pie-0.6.5' --enable-libstdcxx-time --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-clocale=gnu --disable-multilib --enable-altivec --disable-fixed-point --enable-targets=all --disable-libgcj --enable-libgomp --disable-libmudflap --disable-libssp --disable-libcilkrts --enable-lto --without-isl --enable-libsanitizer

Thread model: posix

gcc version 5.3.0 (Gentoo 5.3.0 p1.0, pie-0.6.5) 

    
  2) And the supported emulations

address@hidden ~ $ powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu-ld -V

GNU ld (Gentoo 2.25.1 p1.1) 2.25.1

  Supported emulations:

   elf64lppc

   elf32lppc

   elf32lppclinux

   elf32lppcsim

 
   3) But when I set CHOST="powerpc64le-unkown-linux-gnu" in Gentoo and execute aclocal, automake, libtoolize --copy --force, autoconf. When I glance in the latest m4/libtool.m4 :

if AC_TRY_EVAL(ac_compile); then
   case `/usr/bin/file conftest.o` in
     *32-bit*)
       case $host in
...
         powerpc64le-*linux*)
           LD="${LD-ld} -m elf32lppclinux"
           ;;
         powerpc64-*linux*)
           LD="${LD-ld} -m elf32ppclinux"
           ;;
...
     *64-bit*)
       case $host in
...
         powerpcle-*linux*)
           LD="${LD-ld} -m elf64lppc"
           ;;
         powerpc-*linux*)
           LD="${LD-ld} -m elf64ppc"
           ;;
...

seems linked to $LD='$LD-ld -m elf64ppc' and failed to compile packages. 


 4)  Below is my workaround patch and works fine for this case.  If this is OK for you, Could this to be merged in upstream? Thanks
