[Buildroot] ARCH=ppc vs powerpc

OK, big system upgrade, I'm now at gcc 4.1.2 and I seem to be able to 
compile so far (haven't tried the kernel yet).

One thing to note: changing options in menuconfig is often poorly reflected 
in the 'makes' underneath and no amount of 'make clean' or 'make distclean' 
can make it right. Restarting from a clean svn and copying the .config file 
works though, but that's rather a big waste of time like in the case of 
strip/sstrip/none for instance.


Side question: where to best learn how to make a bootable ACE file for the 
Xilinx architecture from a kernel and, I assume, a bootloader ? Or in other 
words, how do I use the U-Boot option of buildroot ?
