I guess if we're going ahead and doing manylinux3 now, then we can
probably roll in ppc support as part of the same process? The one
major hiccup is that our current Travis-CI-based build pipeline won't
work for ppc, but there's lots of stuff to do before that that could
be shared and where we'd welcome help (see my other email...)
