--- Comment #5 from Peter Bergner <bergner at gcc dot gnu.org> --- (In reply to Sebastian Huber from comment #4) > If I remove the -msoft-float, the two example source files compile > (-mno-altivec seems to cause no harm). Well the first question, is do you really need to use -msoft-float? Looking at the E6500 hardware doc seems to show that it has both hardware FP and Altivec units. > How can I dump the instruction?

You'll probably need a debug build of your gcc for that so it isn't optimized away and then you can print it from gdb.
