I've installed a gcc power pc cross compiler on my sun in order to 
study the pipeline characteristics of the power pc.  however, i'm
finding that the code generated by the cross compiler does not match
the instruction set descriptions provided in the 602 handbook 
provided by Motorola.

  Do I need special command-line options to gcc to force it to use only
  the 601 instructions rather than the complete Power instruction set?
    (i configured gcc with target=powerpc-ibm-aix)

  Is it possible that gcc is using different mnemonics than the ones
  defined by Motorola?  Would these be documented anywhere?  On-line?

Any help would be greatly appreciated...
