You should be able to recompile it from the source package, using
dpkg-buildpackage -B -apowerpc. I will take care of all the needed
rules.

This directory has been removed as it contains non-free data according
to the Debian Free Software Guidelines.

It looks like the glibc configure script hasn't detected you are doing a
cross-compilation. As a result, it tries to run elf/ld.so.1 which is a
powerpc binary, and can't work.

You should use --host instead of --build to select the system you are
targeting. You can also specify --build but it should be detected
automatically. --target is not needed here.
