Hi Peter,

Seems to still work for me (up to and including linux-next), at least
for building defconfig, allmodconfig, and allnoconfig. Also, the defconfig
kernel boots for me with qemu after replacing CONFIG_MARCH_Z196 with
CONFIG_MARCH_Z900.

Have you tried gcc 4.9.0 from
www.kernel.org/pub/tools/crosstool/files/bin/x86_64/4.9.0/ ?
