Just use the ones in H-i686-pc-cygwin/bin
The ones in powerpc-eabi/bin are used internally by the compiler so that
there are versions of those tools in known locations, independent of the
program prefix, which doesn't have to be "powerpc-eabi-"
Those tools are exactly the same as the ones in H-i686-pc-cygwin/bin, but
it is unwise to use them because they have the same names as your native
tools.
