I suspect that we won't run on hppa since IIRC it has a virtual mapped cache, which I suspect will kill our mmap-based circular buffer trick. If you've got some time, please try to build it --disable-usrp2 --disable-gr-usrp2 on your hppa and let me know if it passes make check. FWIW, the rest of GNU Radio runs fine on PPC / big-endian machines, just not the usrp2 interface.
