I built all PowerPC boards with ELDK 4.0 (gcc4.0.0), ELDK 4.1 (gcc
4.0.0) and ELDK 4.2 (gcc 4.2.2). Not a sinlge board failed, and only
very few had unexpected warnings (I consider the "#warning Ethernet
driver is deprecated. Please update to use CONFIG_NET_MULT" warning
to be an expected one - and even this affects only 1 or 2 PowerPC
boards - but about every ARM board).

So could you *please* start providing clear facts? Which board do you
claim to fail to build? Which exact tool chain are you using? And what
are the exact error messages?

D*mn... I'm asking you these very same questions for at least the 4th
time in the last 2 or 3 days.

Please provide FACTS.

Even as a custodian you are supposed to accept that you do not have
unlimited power.

Best regards,
