   I'm sorry to post this mail again, but the last mail had a wrong
   "From:" field. This one should be ok.

   I read a great bunch of articles in this group but found none which
   answered my question. So here it is:

   Is there a gcc support for the PowerPC 601 chip?

The PowerPC 601 is binary compatible to previous Power architectures,
so you could just use the RS/6000 mode. 
Note that future PowerPC version will probably _NOT_ be binary
compatible w/ the Power architecture. 601 is a transitional solution
by Moto re-using large part from an original Power design to roll out
the first PowerPC. Keith Diefendorff pointed out at Hot Chips-93 that
Motorola/IBM/Apple were committed to 'fix' certain problems with the
Power RISC and sacrifice compatibility.
