Package: libllvm14
Version: 1:14.0.6-12
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Hello, 
I think the libLLVM-14 contains some instructions not found on IBM POWER5+ (gs) 
-- vxor is not found in it's IBM reference manual: 
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/ssw_aix_72/assembler/assembler_pdf.pdf

Maybe this library was built for more recent CPUs but the debian ppc64 support 
goes back to POWER5 AFAIK(?)
$ objdump --disassemble /lib/powerpc64-linux-gnu/libLLVM-14.so.1 |grep vxor

As a result there is some difficulty running applications linked to libLLVM, 
for example rust installation fails with SIGILL, there are likely other 
affected programs.

Thank you
Stuart
