Apparently it doesn't for you, but why is that?


It's likely the specs file we use for the kernel we are using for testing with.

%{mcpu=604:%{!maltivec:%{!mno-altivec:-mno-altivec}}} %{mcpu=604:%{!mvsx:%{!mno-vsx:-mno-vsx}}} %{!mcpu=*:%{!maltivec:%{!mno-altivec:-mno-altivec}}} %{!mcpu=*:%{!mvsx:%{!mno-vsx:-mno-vsx}}}

and

'--with-cpu=604'


This shouldn't be fixed by whack-a-mole on individual testcases.

Perhaps a SUBTARGET_OVERRIDE incantation might work?  Any ideas or advice you might have would be welcome.
