[x264-devel] error compiling x264 on powerpc

[Sergio Roa]

Hi!

I hope this is the right place to report a compilation error. By 
compiling the last git version of x264 on a powerpc i am getting the 
following error:

gcc -O4 -ffast-math  -Wall -I. -DHAVE_MALLOC_H -DARCH_PPC -DSYS_LINUX 
-DWORDS_BIGENDIAN -DHAVE_PTHREAD -s -fomit-frame-pointer -maltivec
