Welcome. It was fun :)

Aha. This is the trick. Well, beside Firefox35 and Thunderbird I did not 
build anything else which uses bsd.gecko.mk.

But from the code pov I'd say every port suffers from this issue on powerpc.

Maybe we can leave the bsd.gecko.mk for later.

Currently I try your suggestion. Below is the diff for the Makefile. 
With this patch, the bsd.gecko.mk part is not needed.

Still building.

Gruss,
Andreas
