I haven't looked into any of the failures yet.  That said,
powerpc64-linux is PIC by default, so I thought maybe PIE
would just work.  Maybe it does and it's just powerpc-linux
tests that are failing (I run the testsuite with both
-m32 and -m64).  I won't know until I get some time to have
a deeper look.  That said, if there is something you know
of that I should look for or at, I'd appreciate it.
