I currently do not have a powerpc machine to test,but I could test it using QEMU's powerpc emulation.
And for those who don't know softpipe and LLVMPipe (unlikely) Softpipe:Software rasterizer with no LLVM,compliant with OpenGL 3.3,slow LLVMpipe:Software rasterizer accelerated with LLVM,compliant with OpenGL 4.5,fast That's how it works.
