Bug 206303, TARGET_ARCH=powerpc (non-64) stopped for: unsupported argument '-mppc64bridge' to option '-Wc, '

[Mark Millard]

I have submitted Bug 206303 against 11.0-current for TARGET_ARCH=powerpc (non-64) build attempts that are stopped because of:

unsupported argument '-mppc64bridge' to option '-Wc,'

The context is a clang-based buildworld buildkernel attempt --knowing that it was unlikelly to complete overall. (It as a clang 3.8.0 based experiment.)

The failure was from: base/head/sys/boot/powerpc/kboot/Makefile

The command line getting the message was for compiling conf.c and also had a -mcpu=powerpc64 in it. But the error message is:

cc: error: unsupported argument '-mppc64bridge' to option '-Wc,'

To me this powerpc64 activity seems odd as TARGET_ARCH=powerpc activity.
