Hi,
When attempting to build luajit on powerpc64le-linux, you will get
errors like this:

This has downstream impacts, such as being unable to build LuaJITTeX.
If we can't use LuaJIT on powerpc64le-linux, we should probably remove
it from the luajit package's list of supported systems.
I checked their email list and website, but I can't find information
about whether the LuaJIT project is actively working on support for
powerpc64le architecture specifically. I'll ask their email list
(luajit@freelists.org) in a moment, and we'll see what they say.
