I managed to read things wrong, I thought there was some ifunc stuff in
the definition of TItype_ppc. Of course there is not, it is just
setting the mode.
mode(__TI__) is just the more portable way of writing mode(TI), the
latter will not work if something #define's TI (you cannot do that with
__TI__, you are not allowed to by the C standard, in application code).
So it looks like we could just use {U,}TItype here, no _ppc. Carl, is
there some reason I'm not seeing you used it?
