Well, I'm by no means wedded to ppc64; I just want *some* BE
architecture in the primary set. Maybe a reasonable compromise would be
to include ppc but not ppc64? That would cover basic BE portability
issues, if not the occasional BE-and-64-bit bug. And it would halve the
present workload of the PPC builders, which might help the build time
issue.
Well, AFAIK ppc32 also has this "TOC" mess I was complaining about, it just
has room for twice as many entries because pointers are half the size, so in
practice projects trigger the awfully low ppc64 limit first.
