This is the way to go for this one.

I have a feeling that it should not be too much work, since the ARCH=ppc
embedded plateforms are there still, but i have not had time to do this.

This will not work. I am monitoring upstream work in the 2.6.17 branch, but i
was told that ARCH=ppc is already too broken for PReP to build in it, so i
would forget it for now, and wait until 2.6.17, or try to backport the fix
once it goes in the 2.6.17 branch, or do the port ourselves.
