The only question I have is whether or not PPC LE is just 64 bit or if it has
a 32 bit ABI also. The uname patch referenced above seems to show a ppcle and
ppc64le return. The original patch accepted was only for 64 bit ABI.

Hmmn, initially when I ran into the problem it was due to perf trace (which uses the audit
libs) failing. I didn't notice any other kernel issues, I'll have to look closer
(wrt Pauls patch). As far as 32bit,
I was told by our IBM liason that LE is 64 bit only.
