I did a powerpc build, with gas-2.45, numpy, and all their dependencies. (It took about 18 hours on a dual G5 at 2.0 GHz.) I discovered that "make test" in numpy crashes quickly on powerpc. The cause is clang bug 56023 "PowerPC ABI incompatibility with GNU on complex arguments", SIGSEGV as npy_csqrtf compiled by gcc calls csqrtf(3) compiled by clang. (Our fortran module changes numpy's C compiler to gcc.) gas-2.45 didn't break numpy and looks good on powerpc. I will probably not try gas-2.45 on powerpc64 before you commit it. --gkoehler
