Comment:

 From my `gas` manpage (relevant for '''Linux''' PPC only):
 {{{
 ...
        Target PowerPC options:
           [-mpwrx|-mpwr2|-mpwr|-m601|-mppc|-mppc32|-m603|-m604|
            -m403|-m405|-mppc64|-m620|-mppc64bridge|-mbooke]
           [-mcom|-many|-maltivec|-mvsx] [-memb]
           [-mregnames|-mno-regnames]
           [-mrelocatable|-mrelocatable-lib]
           [-mlittle|-mlittle-endian|-mbig|-mbig-endian]
           [-msolaris|-mno-solaris]
 ...
 }}}
 The options for other architectures in addition have more detailed
 descriptions, but unfortunately not the ones for PPC as the target. But it
 seems `gas` enables instruction set extensions by default.

 ----

 P.S.: That the ''build'' works with `-force_cpusubtype_ALL` (''without''
 `SAGE_CHECK=yes`) doesn't necessarily mean we couldn't get illegal
 instruction exceptions when actually ''running'' the code.
