Yes it can be used to cross compile for the powerpc.  We have a product we
purchased that runs on a Motorola MPC860 which software was compiled
on a Sun Solaris system.  I am just getting started on trying to set up a
similar
system to cross compile for the 860 on a Linux system using GCC-2.8.1.
I have built the Makefile using configure but I am getting some errors for
missing header files (reg_types.h, regex.h and lc_core.h).
