The 'powerpc-750-elf' target name sounds "weird" because :

'powerpc-sysv4' (for instance "Solaris 2 for PPC")
There are differences between the '-elf' and the '-eabi' ("Embedded
ABI") configurations so one should
know why one uses the '-elf' and not the '-eabi'. Looking at
'gcc/config.gcc' and the config templates for
them tells the differences between 'powerpc-*-elf' and
'powerpc-*-eabi'. For instance that the 'gcc/config/rs6000/eabi.h'
will be used to add/change some definitions upon the base '-elf' when
using the '-eabi' target type....
- the PPC750 may be one the 'SPE' models and so the 'powerpc-*spe',
for instance 'powerpc-eabispe'
could be what one could want instead of this $target....
I checked and it wasn't, that '5' in the type maybe caused the false
memory, the '8540' type then is one of
the special 'e500' SPE ones...
