There's a gh pull request I'll close now. I'd forgotten we'd said 'late in
14.x'
to remove bit...

But I agree: powerpcspe is the edge case here and there's unlikely going
to be any work there, unlike i386 which still has i386 specific commits on
at least a monthly or so basis.

Hmm, as discussed on arch@, we were going to late until after the last<br>
14.x release before we actually started removing i386 kernel and<br>
powerpc bits from the tree.  It&#39;s probably not worth reverting these, but<br>
