Current version 3.1.0~rc2-1 seems ok on all archs, but for ppc where it fails
to build with something that looks like a compiler issue.
Based on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/spatialite/+bug/1012976 and
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28904 it would appear that the
issue is that gcc chokes on building massive files on powerpc with PIC (your
file compiles sucessfully if -fPIC is removed) and the gcc developers don't
consider this a bug.
The ubuntu guys suggested soloution is to modify the program that generates
the massive C files to generate a collection of smaller C files instead.
