Building gcc's libobjc fails for the i960 ;)

The only work around I know about is not to build objc / libobjc for the
i960 (It's probably a bug in gcc).

Instead of using the bit scripts, you might consider trying rpm and
RTEMS-4.5.0's rpm specs to build the toolchain (cf.
rtems-4.5.0-xxx/scripts/README and
rtems-4.5.0-xxx/scripts/gccnewlib/gccnewlib_c_only.spec.in).
