Thanks Denis for this patch, this should solve the problem for the powerpc
root floppies, and make them installable again.

Cool, ...

BTW, i fail to build the powerpc root floppy here, i only get the following
mklibs error : 

bject: ./tmp/powerpc_floppy_root/tree/driver-tmp/usr/bin/eject
457 symbols, 406 unresolved
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/mklibs", line 442, in ?
    raise "No library provides non-weak " + symbol
No library provides non-weak SLang_init_tty
make[3]: *** [stamps/tree-powerpc_floppy_root-stamp] Erreur 1

Anyone has any hint about this ?
