Hiroyuki Yamamoto is the porter behind ppc64, so please consider that as
an answer.

Because I don't have enough skill for maintaining
powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc as no trouble now, I don't know whether
I may remark
or not.
But I will make effort to find occurring troubles and to maintain it
as no trouble within my possible skill.

I also think it reasonable at this moment.

this is not a question about any objections, but about a call to the ppc64
porters if they are able to maintain such a port in Debian.  There is no
response yet.

I did check http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.9/criteria.html and apparently ppc64 is a
primary release architecture, so I did make it the default for sid (and will
make 4.9 the default for jessie once uploaded to unstable).

Hi,

I don't know whether it is appropriate that I remark,
I have no objection to moving to gcc-4.8 on ppc64, too.

Control: tags -1 + moreinfo

Afaics, the situation didn't change. There is nobody committing to work on the
toolchain for these architectures.  At least for release architectures the
alternative is to drop the port unless somebody wants to maintain the toolchain
for this port.  This is the current status, please correct me if I'm wrong.

This is a decision for the porters.  If there are no active porters, there
shouldn't be a port.
