--- Comment #186 from Peter Dyballa <Peter_Dyballa at web dot de> ---
Last try was with:

PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/opt/local/libexec/gcc10-bootstrap/bin
LANG=C ../gcc-16-branch-gcc-16-1-darwin/configure --disable-libgomp
--disable-multilib CC=powerpc-apple-darwin9-gcc CXX=powerpc-apple-darwin9-g++
Make starts with:

I do remember having had 'bl out of range' two years ago when trying to build
MuPDF on PPC Tiger, Mac OS X 10.4.11, darwin8, Xcode 2.5:
https://trac.macports.org/ticket/69879. Six weeks later I sent an eMail to
gcc-help list – no answer. I reported that to Artifex,
https://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=707844, where it was argued that
this "compiler/linker issue" happened because "GCC 7.5 is quite old".
I have in Apple Mail an eMail discussion with Gordon Steemson, probably from
gcc-help, who tried to help, with the recommendation to use '"-mlongcall" or
its synonym "-mlong-branch"', but no solution in the end (and MacPorts stopped
supporting Tiger).
This inexact host triplet comes from (examining the saved output from build):
508 config.status: executing libtool commands
509 configure: summary of build options:
510
511 Version: GNU MP 6.3.0
512 Host type: none-apple-darwin9.8.0
513 ABI: standard
514 Install prefix: /usr/local
515 Compiler: powerpc-apple-darwin9-gcc
516 Static libraries: yes
517 Shared libraries: no
Next configure seems to be a bit more clever:
1762 Configuring stage 1 in ./mpfr
1763 configure: creating cache ./config.cache
1764 checking build system type... powerpc-apple-darwin9.8.0
1765 checking host system type... powerpc-apple-darwin9.8.0
1766 checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
1767 checking whether sleep supports fractional seconds... yes
1768 checking filesystem timestamp resolution... 2
