Comment (by kencu):
the trivial fix to build python as universal ppc/ppc64 has never been
PR’d, I believe. Feel free to do that… start with python27, work it
through with Josh. I’ll support you, I used it myself. 2-line patch, first
invented 10 years ago, easy, works. Once that goes in, he may also agree
to maintain for newer pythons too. Upstream declined that fix as ancient
unsupported darwin system combo, though.
the fix you proposed for LTO was pointless as there is no LTO support on
PPC. So forcing everyone to build every python port with a newer gcc was
both a lot of potential trouble, and needless. So that rightfully was
declined.
All the pythons have always built universal on all Intel systems, so let’s
see what you’ve run into here…
