Just tried a build on powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu with Debian 6.0.4 and :

                === libffi Summary ===

# of unexpected failures        608
# of unresolved testcases       608
# of unsupported tests          55

That is very ugly.

configure was :

 ./configure --libexecdir=/usr/local/libexec/ppc970
--libdir=/usr/local/lib/ppc970 --build=powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu
--prefix=/usr/local --enable-dependency-tracking

Which looked fine :

ppc $ ./configure --libexecdir=/usr/local/libexec/ppc970
