I think you should call is "ppc64", since that is the type of packages
usually used in a cell-based system, and it would be compatible with
regular ppc64 machines. Unless we use the spus in our scripts, but
this would not make much sense :)

Is this path hardcoded somewhere?
If you are using a system with only 64 bits binaries, there is no
special handling needed. Only an additional compatibility link if the
path is hardcoded in applications.

/spu? I don't see why SymlinkProgram should be aware of this.

Ok.

How far did you went? Did you made any progress on installing GoboLinux?

I'm working with cell machines here at work, kernel development.
Mostly IBM Cell blades, where I only installed rootless. I also have 2
PS3's used for testing kernel images (since there are some differences
on how low level stuff is accessed under cell blades and PS3's).
