-m32 is what allows you to use a ppc32/64 bi-arch toolchain and build a
32bit kernel.  It is harmless on just ppc32 compilers.

Correct.  -mcpu860 was a 'do nothing' flag.  It didn't actually tell the
compiler anything, it just didn't cause an error.  It was removed when
we had to add more really used flags.
