The cross-compile works (or worked). That's my default setup.
I change linux/Makefile with:
	CROSS_COMPILE = parisc-linux-

o only gcc can be used to build kernels.
o "cc" is still needed to generate utilities which run under HP-UX
  (that's HOSTCC in the Makefiles)

"ld" is the exception still because of SOM support. 
But I don't think that's Thierry's problem since the linker
isn't complaining about the object file type...

Which makes me wonder: theirry, what *is* the object file type?
It has to be HP's SOM format. I think the recipe for building
tools includes the changes to do that.
