system-clang (elfv2) and devel/binutil@powerpc (32-bit): booting fail very early on PowerMac3,6 example ; also build problem why I tried this

(There are later notes below with build failure
information that lead me to try devel/binutils@powerpc .)

Because of the (cross-)build failure (from amd64):

--- acl_nfs4.ko.full ---
ld: acl_nfs4.kld(.text+0x234): R_PPC_PLTREL24 reloc against local symbol
acl_nfs4.kld: could not read symbols: Bad value
*** [acl_nfs4.ko.full] Error code 1

when using the default ld for 32-bit powerpc, I
tried using devel/binutil@powerpc for which
buildworld buildkernel at least ran to completion.
The build was of a non-debug kernel (and world),
but with symbols.

But the result failed to boot, stopping very early:
(typed from a image)
