Apparently my build with the RSB tools didn't see all those failures. I
repeated
the same build script/configuration with tools from the head and nearly
all BSPs failed. I may have updated RTEMS between those two points in time
and the problem got worse.  This is the configure line for powerpc/psim.
All others were the same with the architecture and BSP replaced:

../rtems/configure --target=powerpc-rtems4.11 \
   --prefix=/home/joel/rtems-4.11-work/bsp-install/
--disable-multiprocessing \
  --disable-cxx --disable-rdbg --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-tests \
  --enable-networking --enable-posix --disable-itron --disable-deprecated \
  --disable-ada --enable-expada --enable-rtemsbsp=psim

+1 Hopefully not too long though. Most of them are more contained to BSPs,
ports, etc. than in past years where there was score work.
