AFAIK, not yet. Below is a relevent post made to the LinuxPPC dev list. Paul (who is being addressed) is the current PPC kernel maintainer.

Paul,

Can you please make a decision regarding which version (or both) of the AltiVec ptrace support should go into the kernel.

The two patches are available here:

http://lists.linuxppc.org/linuxppc-dev/200112/msg00107.html

The change is holding up altivec support for gdb.

Thanks

- - kumar
