Another try. Reconfigured DRM and xf86-video-nouveau modules with
"./autogen.sh CFLAGS=-m64", recompiled, copied, run:
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nouveau_drv.so
dlopen: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nouveau_drv.so: wrong ELF class:
ELFCLASS64
(EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//nouveau_drv.so
(II) UnloadModule: "nouveau"
(EE) Failed to load module "nouveau" (loader failed, 7)
(EE) No drivers available.
The question is - has anybody ever compiled AND run X.org + modules as
64bit binaries for PPC64?

Have made a next try.
The nouveau_drv.so compiles for PPC32 while I need PPC64. Is it able
to be compiled for PPC64?
The autogen.sh output is below. When I've been trying to rebuild the
kernel, sizeof(void*) was 8, but for nouveau_drv.so it is 4 bytes As
my PCI BARs are behind 4GB, it is the problem.
Any clues?

So, with the help of the community, I've got all the binaries
compiled and ready-to-run. But it crashes in the very beginning. So
the question is - what does nouveau expect from the system BIOS to
get started (if it does)? I'm asking because I know for sure that the
BIOS I have does support video very limited and I'm not sure that the
support implemented at the moment is enough to get X.org up.
Also, I've heard an opinion that X.org cannot work with the cards
mapped behind 4GB range. My server maps all the PCI devices there
(see the lspci output). Can anybody comment on that?
