As you can see, we also build ppc32 userspace by default, ppc64 only when
explicitly requested.

Yep, --libdir is always passed in by %configure, and things all built fine for
all arches in our build system right now. Initially, powerpc64 builds failed,
then I think one intermediate patch variant might have broken powerpc32
builds (this is the part I didn't actually try on ppc32), and now
everything's all good. :)
