Bug#843691: glibc: FTBFS on ppc64el: Error: operand out of range

[Fernando Seiti Furusato <ferseiti@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Source: glibc
Version: 2.24-5
Severity: serious

Hello,

glibc is failing to build on ppc64el, on sid with the following:

.../sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power6/memset.S: Assembler messages:
.../sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power6/memset.S:254: Error: operand out of range (5 is not between 0 and 1)
.../sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power6/memset.S:254: Error: operand out of range (128 is not between 0 and 31)
.../sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power6/memset.S:254: Error: missing operand

This was an attempt with sbuild with sid.
It initially built on the same version on buildd, 20 days ago or so,
but the failure was also observed on cross-compilation.

Thanks.

Fernando
