	You really want to use llvm-gcc with the cellspu backend. Gcc kind of sucks. You also want to cross-compile from pony, since the hyperthreaded PowerPC in the PS3 is kind of slow. There is a distcc service available on the French GCC cluster if pony doesn't cut it. Talk to [[User:Dr jesus\|Dr. Jesus]] for details.		You really want to use llvm-gcc with the cellspu backend.
