On first glance, additions/modifications would be required to
runtime/regs.c runtime/regs.h runtime/string.h runtime/copy.c

Look for all instances of arch specific code in the above files and
you'll need to add or modify existing stubs for it to work on powerpc.

Further, you'll need to build and run SystemTap to determine if any
other changes would be needed for ppc32 enablement.
