I disabled altivec in 'config.h' (actually, that file never detects
altivec automatically, perhaps a bug in the configuration script?) and
'config.mak'.
It now compiles without error, so I assume it is really an altivec
problem...

Yes, it seems that the '-maltivec' and '-mabi=altivec' flags should be
replaced by -faltivec.
With that flag replacing the others, the compilation succeeds.
So perhaps anyone should modify the configuration script or may write a
little text in the README file that you have to apply these changes?
Thank You
Regards
