Okay, that looks interesting.

We aren't CI-ing on 32-bit PowerPC upstream, currently. I likely have
enough resources spare on my POWER8 server to set up a VM (I'm told I
can get KVM acceleration for big-endian on a little-endian OS?) but I
have no idea how long that will take me to set up. Almost all our
PowerPC maintenance is community-provided, largely by one guy. I don't
know how much real 32-bit PPC testing he's doing.
