[PATCH] add PowerPC 750 to list of BFD supported PowerPC architectures

[PATCH] add PowerPC 750 to list of BFD supported PowerPC architectures

[Paul Gilliam]

This patch allows GDB to work with a PowerPC 750 chip.  GDB already has what it needs, but BFD needs to know about it.

Should I also submit this patch to bug-binutils@gnu.org?

	* bfd/cpu-powerpc.c: add ppc 750 to list of supported PowerPC chips.

Try binutils@sourceware.org.

What exactly does this fix?  i.e. what doesn't work in GDB without it?

Capital letter at the start; also describe where you're changing. 
Path is relative to the nearest ChangeLog, in this case, bfd's.

	* cpu-powerpc.c (bfd_powerpc_archs): Add powerpc:750.
