If you are using the RTEMS RPMs or standard configure
command, then you have a lot of multilib variants.

GCC has some differences for 403, 405, and 405fp.
Is the virtex CPU really a 403 like the CPU_CFLAGS indicates?

This is the difference from gcc's viewpoint:

    = {{"401", PROCESSOR_PPC403, POWERPC_BASE_MASK | MASK_SOFT_FLOAT},
         {"403", PROCESSOR_PPC403,
          POWERPC_BASE_MASK | MASK_SOFT_FLOAT | MASK_STRICT_ALIGN},
         {"405", PROCESSOR_PPC405,
          POWERPC_BASE_MASK | MASK_SOFT_FLOAT | MASK_MULHW | MASK_DLMZB},
         {"405fp", PROCESSOR_PPC405,
          POWERPC_BASE_MASK | MASK_MULHW | MASK_DLMZB},
         {"440", PROCESSOR_PPC440,
          POWERPC_BASE_MASK | MASK_SOFT_FLOAT | MASK_MULHW | MASK_DLMZB},
         {"440fp", PROCESSOR_PPC440,
