possible powerpc 40x problem in 2.12

Hi,

I tried to build all of the RTEMS configurations using
the same binutils 2.12 source I reported results on 
earlier and have gotten a failure on the ppc40x targets
because the following instructions are recognized.  This
is with gcc 2.95.3 on top of the gas and I think something
is not quite in sync because -mcpu=403 is resulting in
-mppc being passed to gas.  With that, it doesn't like
the mfdcr and mtdcr instructions and claims them as illegal.

Should I be using a different gcc CPU CFLAG or is
this a case where binutils 2.12 is intended to be 
using with gcc 3.x?

Thanks.
