Madhavan Srinivasan 8c9c01ce69 selftests/powerpc: Allow building without static libc
Currently exec-target.c is linked statically with libc, which on Fedora
at least requires installing an additional package (glibc-static).

If that package is not installed the build fails with:

    CC       exec_target
  /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lc: No such file or directory
  collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

All exec_target.c does is call sys_exit, which can be done easily enough
using inline assembly, and removes the requirement for a static libc to
be installed.
