The idea is that looking at the effort required for the MIPS port gives you
an estimate how much effort a PPC port would be: A few engineers, several
months (roughly speaking, I don't know any specifics).
Another way to put it: we have roughly 40K LoC for each architecture. You
could start with a copy and probably wouldn't have to change every single
line, but most of them.
