If you start from the anonymous CVS version, you'll see that there is a
ppc60x variant HAL. It's probably not complete as it's only been used so
far with psim. But since you'll have to do a board port anyway, filling in
the gaps isn't likely to be of much consequence, and all the framework is
there.
