This is a fork of Retro68's GCC 9.1, heavily modified to emit asm that the official NTPPC assembler PAS.EXE (aka cross-assembler PASM.EXE as included in old VC6-era Windows CE 2.x for PowerPC toolchain) can build. Combine with VC++4.x's linker (any later will not work) to make a full toolchain.
-O2and higher is broken, without disabling problematic optimisations: at least-fno-align-functions -fno-align-labels -fno-align-jumps -fno-align-loops- No SEH support
- Function prologues + epilogues / stack frames are technically not correct for PPC NT, this only really causes issues with some exceptions in kernel mode leading to
PANIC_STACK_SWITCHbugcheck (instead of the correct one) due to exception handling related code in NT itself raising an exception - C++ support is completely untested.
- No libgcc, if you need math related functions from there use arith64.c (or manually use
Rtl*functions from ntdll/etc)
There may be other issues.
git clone https://github.com/Wack0/peppc

# libgcc build will fail, this is expected.
cd gcc
make install
Compile, assemble, link like so:
powerpcle-pe-winnt-gcc -S -O1 -o - file.c | powerpcle-pe-winnt-cpp - -P -w -o file.asm # add compiler switches as appropriate
pasm.exe -o file.obj file.asm # ran through wine if needed
link.exe /OUT:file.exe file.obj libs... # ran through wine if needed
