Comment # 8 on bug 1112433 from
1. sdbinutils is a fork of the regular binutils
2. none of the developers has a PPC machine probably
3. embedspu is a strange one - it embeds an executable for the SPE (Cell) into
a binary for the PPE (PowerPC).

It makes sense to build embedspu on for the PowerPC (cross-)target.

Note, binutils not only has a target (runtime) architecture, but also
"supported" targets, i.e. architectures it can handle code for. Have a look at
the output of "ld --help | grep riscv".

Due do a complete lack of any options for configuring the build of embedspu (I
checked configure and the makefiles) I see no other sensible option than to fix
it up afterwards.
