 Using quite the same logic as with the 'm68k-coff' target...

 I put the default target for my 'ppc-eabi' compiler to be the 'psim' 
simulator which comes with gdb-4.17 (sim/ppc). So I just copied the
'sim' definitions to the 'default' in 'specs'...

For example when 'specs' say:

	*startfile_sim:
	ecrti.o%s sim-crt0.o%s

I set the :

	*startfile_default:
	ecrti.o%s sim-crt0.o%s

and when 'specs' say:

	*endfile_sim:
	ecrtn.o%s

I put:

	*endfile_default:
	ecrtn.o%s

Ok, the method was this, the rest defaults are:

	*link_start_default:
	-Ttext 0x10000074

and

	*lib_default:
	-lc -lsim
