[Buildroot] PPC won't build with soft float

[Buildroot] PPC won't build with soft float

[Chris Elliott]

Recently I have been unable to build when soft float is set.  I have 
tried 20090323 and 20090329.  The configuration is below.  It fails 
saying that the C compiler cannot create executables.  The failure is in 
libmudflap.  Checking config.log I see the specific error is 
".../gcc-4.3.3-final/./gcc/libgcc_s.so: undefined reference to 
'copysignl'"  Is there a fix or workaround?

Strange, that used to work. Does it work if you disable
BR2_GCC_SHARED_LIBGCC? What host distribution do you use?

It does build when I disable shared libgcc.  I'm building on Fedora 9.

Thanks
