OK. Clearly nobody has ever used it so :(
There is an infinite loop because cgcc use the env var CHECK
to call sparse while kbuild use CHECK to call cgcc here.

The following seems to work here.
$ export REAL_CC=ppc-linux-gcc
$ make CHECK="CHECK=sparse cgcc -target=ppc ...

It's a bit kludgy, I admit.

OK. Using cgcc creates more problems that it solves and this file
scripts/mod/empty.c is weird.
Dropping cgcc and simply giving the GCC version to sparse works for
me here (the needed defines are given by arch/powerpc/Makefile) but
for sure I don't have the same environment as you have:
  $ make CHECK="sparse -D__GNUC__=5 -D__GNUC_MINOR__=4" ...

Bonne chance,

This time it works, thanks for your help.

Should we find a may to automate that in the Makefile when CROSS_COMPILE 
is defined ?

You're welcome.

The situation here with an old gcc is really an oddity.
I was instead thinking to update sparse so that it repports a
GCC version of at least 4.6, maybe something even more recent.

But maybe, yes, kbuild could pass GCC_VERSION to sparse so
that both the compiler used and sparse will repport the same.
I'll see. The problem is not tied to cross-compilation, though,
just that sparse may be compiled with an older compiler.
