When doing the initial freescale board work, I ran into
similar (same) problems with userspace (and gcc), and
ended up backing off to a more generic optimization level
to get things working. So there are a definitely few things
to do. I was experimenting with FPU settings, but haven't
gone back to look again.

Was combo did you see problems with?

It was particular to the mpc8315e config.

I added e500v2 support to OpenEmbedded more than one year ago and have
not seen issues yet in userspace GCC.
Recently been playing with SPE which also ran fine:

Runtime on the target is fine, since this is all well known
and working (we've had SPE/e500/e500v2 BSPs working for
quite some time), the issue was specific to -Os and gcc 4.5
bootstrap building.

These have all largely been resolved now, and a minor kernel
patch has the powerpc kernel boot code building and working,
and cleanups can happen in our post yocto 0.9 efforts.

Cheers,
