Inappropriate fix in RELEASE-1 branch

[Egbert Eich]

It was agreed upon that the release tree only receives (critical) 
bug fixes, updates of external packages that have been released 
and docu updates.

This clearly doesn't belong into any of these cathegories:

 27. Added initial support for PowerPC 64 (ppc64) architecture.
     (Mike A. Harris, Elliot Lee, SuSE)
 
Somewhere we need to draw a line.
Please back it out!

Egbert.
