While I'm certainly not advocating for building them normally, it would be handy to actually be able to build a debug kernel for ppc64 from time to time. I had to make the following changes for this to work (outside of adding ppc64 to the arch list for debug kernels in kernel.spec).

Anyone have a problem with me committing this?
