[PATCH 2/2] x86, powerpc: remove -funit-at-a-time compiler option entirely

[Masahiro Yamada]

GCC 4.6 manual says:

-funit-at-a-time
  This option is left for compatibility reasons. -funit-at-a-time has
  no effect, while -fno-unit-at-a-time implies -fno-toplevel-reorder
  and -fno-section-anchors.
  Enabled by default.
