The problem here then is that we have to pull your entire tree into an
overlay in order to even have access to these builds, and you're tree is
really not ppc friendly at all (let alone cris, arm, etc).  It's very x86
centric and at this point we don't even have anyone working on x86 !!  For
an x86 users it's fine as they will actually get other things out of the
tree.

Just my $0.02 again.  I am not totally happy about having to overlay an
entire tree that is useless to my arch just to get the base tools I need to
develop things.
