Alan said he did this, which was a bootstrap and regression test of
all the combinations:

/I built four configurations, powerpc-linux 32-bit only, 
powerpc64le-linux 64-bit only, biarch powerpc-linux with 32-bit default, 
and biarch powerpc64-linux with 64-bit default/

I also did verify that on the ppc64le build and the biarch ppc64 64-bit
default that the gold linker and split stack were enabled as expected and
ran the Go testsuite for those.
