Bug#785065: vdso32 fails to built on ppc64el
Control: retitle -1 ppc64el kernel build requires multilib compiler Control: severity -1 normal Thanks for restoring support for 32-bit code generation. I recognise it's not something you really want to support, so I'm leaving the kernel bug open but changing the title/severity accordingly.

If this is not possible in the short term, then we can re-enable this for unstable for some time. This also seems to break grub2 on ppc64el [1]. I think it's a legitimate use case.

If you can make gcc-4.9-powerpc-linux-gnu available on ppc64el we *might* be able to use that. I don't know whether it will be installable in a buildd though.
