You are still at it, i see. I am not sure you really need to build a ppc64 d-i
to install a pure-powerpc64 system, so i doubt there is any real advantage in
getting the .udebs to build in 64bit mode.

Please try instead to work on base-installer/debootstrap to be able to install
your pure-powerpc64 stuff from a 32bit d-i userland running on a 64bit powerpc
kernel as currently in debian. There is really no way you will be able to
convince anyone that you really need >4GB ram for d-i :)
