So, to give it a little background: I need this for Fedora builds on ppc64p7. 
Just the name recognition helps, because the name is passed automatically by 
rpmbuild to configure (== if not recognized, build fails). So this is basically 
a way for configure to recognize ppc64p7 as ppc, nothing more. Doing little 
googling told me that PHP already accepted patch like this [1] (although I know 
that Python doesn't have to do what other languages do...)
