Re: ppc64 support in Debian?

We're about to get an IBM p-series machine here for evaluation. We run Debian on our other servers, and it would be nice to stay standardized on one distribution. I'm perfectly happy compiling my own kernels and even my own toolchain. But I'm wondering if Debian has any packages that
