Comment (by Chris Johns):

 The error is happening in `as` and it would appear the PPC `as` does not
 support 64bit options. Does an `as` Linux build of the PPC support the
 `-a64` option? Hint, use `-save-temp` to get a `.s` file and shift it to
 Linux and try.

 I would compare the full build logs for a Linux build and a Cygwin build
 paying extra attention to the assembler configure and build. I would try
 and locate a PowerPC 64bit assembler file in the `as` source and see if it
 is build on Linux and Cygwin.
