Obsolete PowerPC PE, winnt and cygwin targets
The PowerPC PE support is so old and bitrotted that it ought to be removed. Test results for a cross from x86_64 with no C cross compiler currently shows 109 fails. I don't think anyone cares about the target. This FIXME in bfd/peXXigen.c has been around since 1999, git commit 277d1b5e453: /* FIXME: This file has various tests of POWERPC_LE_PE. Those tests worked when the code was in peicode.h, but no longer work now that the code is in peigen.c. PowerPC NT is said to be dead. If anybody wants to revive the code, you will have to figure out how to handle those issues. */ and this one in gas/config/tc-ppc.c since 1995, git commit cd557d83d61: * FIXME: I just noticed this. This doesn't work at all really. It it * setting bits that bfd probably neither understands or uses. The * correct approach (?) will have to incorporate extra fields attached * to the section to hold the system specific stuff. (krk) * config.bfd: Obsolete powerpcle-*-pe targets.
