darwin/ppc --disable-altivec enables x86 asm in ac3dec

[jeremyhu]

I just added a new config to fate.ffmpeg.org. ppc-darwin-gcc-4.0.1 is built with --disable-altivec, and it is failing in ac3dec due to intel asm:

CC	libavcodec/ac3dec.o
/var/folders/x8/x8sPtfKVFomVBdsjFDgLM++++TI/-Tmp-//ccshAMyQ.s:7198:no such instruction: `mulhw %eax, %eax,%ebx'
make: *** [libavcodec/ac3dec.o] Error 1

The following works fine here on a G4 with gcc 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5493):
$ make distclean
$ git pull
$ ./configure --disable-altivec
$ make libavcodec/ac3dec.o
CC libavcodec/ac3dec.o
$

How can I reproduce the problem?

[jeremyhu]

Well the system is an intel machine running Leopard. gcc is essentially the same (there was not much of importance between 5493 and 5494

I'll take a look into it a bit more.

Replying to jeremyhu:

Well the system is an intel machine running Leopard.

Do I understand correctly that compilation works fine with "./configure", but fails for "./configure --disable-altivec" ?
(This would certainly be a bug, but the question remains why you pass --disable-altivec to a configure run on Intel?)

[jeremyhu]

No, it failed without --disable-altivec as well.

It seems like it's probably a bug in the MacPorts?-built compiler:
