I suppose we should try to keep the ppc64 ExcludeArch bug as empty as we've been keeping the 32-bit one, despite the fact that we don't really use much 64-bit userspace on Fedora/PPC.

So let's make a start with the fun bits... OCaml now builds on PPC64 Linux. Maybe I'll take a look at Modula-3 if I get a few moments to myself and need a little light relief.

I've looked at a few build failures on PPC/PPC64 this week, and (aside from the 'we need some nutter to port OCaml' bit) so far they've all turned out to be generic problems which just happened to bite here first. As usual, Fedora on other architectures benefits a lot from the mere fact that we also build it for PowerPC.
