Cool; the little-endian build worked fine, but

jim at krebstar:~/linux-rc$ make ARCH=powerpc
CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc64-linux-gnu- vmlinux
make: powerpc64-linux-gnu-gcc: Command not found
make: powerpc64-linux-gnu-gcc: Command not found
scripts/kconfig/conf  --silentoldconfig Kconfig
make: powerpc64-linux-gnu-gcc: Command not found

This is on Ubuntu 16.04; there's a /usr/bin/powerpc64le-linux-gnu-gcc
from installing gcc-powerpc64le-linux-gnu, and a
/usr/bin/powerpc-linux-gnu-gcc from installing gcc-powerpc-linux-gnu,
but no /usr/bin/powerpc64-linux-gnu-gcc.
