You are not supposed to use the ppc_6xx packages on a non-FPU system;
these packages are explicitly made for processors _with_ a FPU. This
is documented in the manual, section "3.4. Supported Target
Architectures" at
http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDKSupportedTargetArchitectures
For your processor you should use the ppc_8xx packages instead.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

You know that feeling when you're leaning back on a stool and it
starts to tip over? Well, that's how I feel all the time.
