It's not the silicon - it failed on a G5 XServe as well It's not gcc - I did a successful build on gcc5. It's not the kernel version - it succeeded on a Mac Mini with 3.16.0-4-powerpc... actually... You've been using a ppc64 kernel on that POWER7, right? porpora (build daemon 2), powerpc-unicamp-01 (build daemon 1) and partch (porterbox) all use 3.16.0-4-powerpc64. i've been having successful builds on a G4 Mac Mini with 3.16.0-4-powerpc I don't have a definite 3.16 64-bit kernel success, or any 32-bit kernel failures, in my data set.
