I took a look at it, however, I'm not sure about the following in your
debian/rules:

====
CPU := $(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH_CPU)
[..]
else ifeq ($(CPU),powerpc)
        TARGET := linux-ppc32
else ifeq ($(CPU),ppc64)
        TARGET := linux-ppc64
====

Won't that create a ppc64 binary if I have such a CPU, even if I try to
build on a normal ppc?

Similar for the detection of your detection of MMX and SSE, which is
even less clear to me:  You install a script to do runtime detection of
MMX and SSE/2 support, but you also have compile time checks for that.
