Hi LuaJIT community,

Is anyone in the LuaJIT community actively working on adding support for
the powerpc64le architecture?  Specifically, I am wondering about the
powerpc64le-linux-gnu triplet, running on POWER9-based systems like the
Talos II and Blackbird sold by Raptor Computing Systems.

I ask because LuaJIT has been packaged for Guix, but it currently fails
to build on this platform, as explained in the following Guix bug
report:

https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=49220

Based on the error output, it seems that this platform just isn't
supported yet:
