Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-11505:
-------------------------------------------

At one point in time, the jenkins servers had access to a PPC box. I had daily 
builds working and was going towards getting a precommit test setup.  Then IBM 
signed the deal with Hortonworks to support HDP on  PPC.  So I pretty much 
stopped working on it since I assumed that HW would be spending it's 
considerable resources on it rather than what I could offer as a lowly 
volunteer. i.e., my time was better spent elsewhere. Almost 3 months ago, 
access to the PPC box was lost.  I have no idea what sort of support HW is 
putting towards PPC.  I'm guessing zero, given I haven't seen anything 
non-Linux/x86 come out of there.

(I just did a quick test on the other PPC box that Jenkins has access to.  It 
is lacking docker, so that's pretty much a no go.)

> hadoop-mapreduce-client-nativetask fails to use x86 optimizations in some
