This is a pain!   It means that we can't build a single kernel that will
boot on pSeries (etc) and PS3 (ROMBOOT?).   There may be other reasons,
of course, but this on it own does it.

(I have spent considerable time trying to get a single image that will
boot on any PPC64 machine, so this is in my thoughts).
