Building with -mcpu=cell won't work on 970 or g4, because that enables
a few extra instructions that were not present in the older cpus.

If you know you want to build with altivec (i.e. not run on power4 or
older), then '-m32 -mcpu=7450 -mtune=cell' or '-m64 -mcpu=970 -mtune=cell'
would be a reasonable thing to try.
