24 <para>Yaboot defaults to build as 32bit, so we need to pass appropriate
25 options to both the compiler and the linker. To prevent the build from
26 failing due to compiler warnings, the -Werror flag is removed. The
27 Makefile already overrides any CC and ignores LDFLAGS in favour of
28 its own variables, so we need to use the following seds for a
29 successful compile and install.</para>
