Just a quick note, that we're trying to get a functional pkg set:

http://pylon.nyi.freebsd.org/build.html?mastername=3Dhead-powerpc64-defau=
lt&build=3Dp485206_s340525

We'll try turning up the juice from -J4 in poudriere in a bit and see
how much we can push this Tyan Power8.  Once we get something on
-current, we'll move to 12-release hopefully.  Stay tuned.
