There is nothing to port. The FADS board  is  supported  out  of  the
"box". Umm, ifyour hardware is working, that is.

Forget it. There are many, many GCC features deeply  built  into  the
Linux kernel.

Use GCC instead.

I wish Captain Vimes were here. He wouldn't have  known  what  to  do
either, but he's got a much better vocabulary to be baffled in.

This HowTo is very useful.

Also the archive of this mailing list and the archive of the ppcboot
