The fan issues are completely gone in current! However building ports had
it issues. When I tried t build xorg-minimal it kept failing when it tried
to install the graphics/dri dependency. I placed a bug report and search
the internet for a solution. Then I found a thread on *the FreeBSD forums*
<https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/problem-building-xorgs-dependencies-on-powerpc.50356/>
that described my issue. Based on this thread is set these options in make
was able to install the port:

*make LD=/usr/local/powerpc-portbld-freebsd11.0/bin/ld USE_GCC48=yes
install clean*

Now I need to figure out how to make it permanent.
