No.  It was 2.1.93 and 2.1.94-{1,2} that were unhappy - 2.1.3 is
perfectly fine.  I'm not pushing powerpc to 2.1.95 until I'm convinced
it's safe, which should be later this week.

Do be alert for it... it will break things!  But not hideously, and it
may fix exim.  SSH without ipv6 enabled is a little prone to
segfaulting...
