If that is the case the bug is/was in the use of _ARCH_PPC64 in sljit .
It looks like sljit was fixed already upstream with
https://github.com/zherczeg/sljit/commit/a3caf4956a81046e0b717c764f34a0cf34ead44d
.
So what GCC is doing is correct based on the definition of _ARCH_PPC64 and the
use of -mcpu=970 here.
