Thanks.  I'll take a look at these patches in the next few days.

It looks like I might be able to use qemu to boot, say, an ubuntu PPC disk
to emulate a power-pc build on my x86 box.  If it's a common non-x86 architecture
issue, this should reproduce the build problems and let me fix them
properly.

I'm downloading that now.
