This uses a configure-time check whether __ALTIVEC__ is defined. However,
GCC for PowerPC by default does not define __ALTIVEC__, it does so only
when using the -maltivec flag. In any case, this is rather independent of
whether the target system supports AltiVec or not ...
Why does this need to be a configure check in the first place? Wouldn't
it be much preferable if you could build a single gdbserver binary that
would report the properties of the system it happens to be running on?
Bye,
Ulrich
