Yeah, sometimes unstable may mean there were remaining issues, but it
is also common for features to remain unstable for a long time without
no changes. So, yeah, we should at least try to know what is the
overall status, i.e. the latest changes that landed regarding ppc64
inline asm, e.g. when was the last time a significant bug was fixed
etc.

(And I guess IBM prefers that it works with more versions rather than less?)

Thanks, that would be great.

Ah, OK -- both series added the conditional to
`scripts/min-tool-version.sh` and both are from IBM, so I was just
wondering :)
