Ah....
Building with "make  ARCH=parisc  CROSS_COMPILE=/some/path/nolibc/hppa-linux/bin/hppa-linux-"
uses this CROSS_COMPILE prefix for compiling the .c files, but not for the .S files.
So, you will end up with the default hppa-linux-gcc installed on the system, not the one provided
by CROSS_COMPILE.
