    C'est quand même bien Debian, tu pose une question et, paf, le même jour tu as une réponse.

    The University of Augsburg and IBM have provided some of our
    developers with access to three POWER based machines (OpenPower 720
    [1]) to help with Debian's port to 64 bit PowerPC. We have also been
    given a G5 on loan which can be used for debian-installer, glibc and
    other work. The G5 is currently with Jeff Bailey.

    A selected number of (powerpc, d-i, glibc, gcc) developers have gained
    access to the POWER systems already. Bastian Blank announced some
    success with powerpc64 support for glibc today [2]. If you are
    interested in working on the powerpc64, please contact me and I'll see
    if I can arrange an account for you. There'll probably be more
    general access in the future.

    Conclusion : le portage PPC64 est en cours et je pense qu'un coup de main ne sera pas de trop.
