Yes, indeed. The attached patch does that and fixes the issue.
I’ll inline the patch in the ‘patches’ field and commit that later on so
as to group world rebuilds a bit. I’ll send it to libc-alpha too.
(Initially I tried patching just
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/le/configure.ac but that’s not sufficient.)
Thanks,
Ludo’.
