BTW, this was on my console (hidden by the eclipse window), in
case it helps:

get env key CC value powerpc-poky-linux-gcc
get env key CXX value powerpc-poky-linux-g++
get env key GDB value powerpc-poky-linux-gdb
get env key TARGET_PREFIX value powerpc-poky-linux-
get env key CONFIGURE_FLAGS value --target=powerpc-poky-linux --host=powerpc-poky-linux --build=i686-linux
get env key CFLAGS value -mcpu=603e -mhard-float
get env key CXXFLAGS value -mcpu=603e -mhard-float
get env key POKY_NATIVE_SYSROOT value /home/gary/mytarget_poky/tmp/sysroots/i686-linux
get env key POKY_TARGET_SYSROOT value /home/gary/mytarget_poky/tmp/sysroots/ppc603e-poky-linux
