Which platform does your linux host runs on?

What sort of gdb are you using on your linux host? Is it a version which
compiled for correct target (ppc with correct endian in your case, see
Net for further explanation)? If you're using vanilla gdb from your's
x86 distribution package (which compiled with source = target = x86),
then you should move to correctly prepared gdb...
