What is broken for each of them?

The Makefiles are not set up to block building these, which
suggests that Mark Linimon's builds have been completing
in what looks like a successful status. (He marks things
as broken for powerpc64 and for powerpc periodically.)

Of course it could be that what is built is still broken
in some way at run-time.

It is true that, for powerpc64, lang/gcc6 will first
cause a lang/gcc5 build in order to bootstrap, avoiding
gcc 4.2.1 from the system. The Makefile does not set up
such for (32-bit) powerpc . (Should it?)

[As I use system-clang in order to find and report
problems for targeting powerpc64 and powerpc, my normal
powerpc and powerpc64 contexts are not appropriate for
tests of such for the officially supported context.]
