What happens if you do

make ARCH=powerpc

and build everything that way (including the "config" phase)?

I did
make mrproper
copy the .config over again
make ARCH=powerpc menuconfig
exit and save from menuconfig
make ARCH=powerpc

You need to disable PREP support when building with ARCH=powerpc for 32
bits, it doesn't build (yet). We should remove it from Kconfig...

Also, there is an issue with the make clean stuff, make sure when
switching archs to also remove arch/powerpc/include/asm symlink before
trying to build.

Can we please add some defconfigs for arch/powerpc to possibly help with this issue. I'm think a pmac32, pmac64, and whatever other 64 bit configs would be a good start.
