Addition... Christian, see the patch for ppc64el in Ubuntu (diff to file "ppc64el_cpu_config.patch"): https://patches.ubuntu.com/p/python-numpy/python-numpy_1:1.8.1-1ubuntu1.patch
It adds other changes, I think that all related to floating point. It would be good if you or other people with experience in the low level details of the architecture could provide more information to this bug report, and thus a more complete/correct patch than the one that I provided.
