That's the one I was referring to.

I know how to eliminate the others (Introducing an abstract base class
for rtems_cpu_table and to move all CPU-variant specific fields out of
CPUkit - This would be a major redesign of RTEMS), but I have no idea
how to clean up the PPC_INTERRUPTS mess in powerpc.h

Hmm? I don't understand.

Do you mean an extern variable in cpukit to be filled in libcpu?
We already have this at several places. The problem with with powerpc is
the borked design of the way the interrupt defines are being setup in
powerpc.h.
