I'm set up to do regression hunts on a powerpc64-linux-gnu system and
can keep it busy.  For regressions that can be tested with only cc1 or
cc1plus a regression hunt can build and test cross compilers so it
doesn't matter what the build/host system is.

If there are regressions you'd like me to track down, assign the PRs to
me temporarily and then I can assign them to the person who introduced
or exposed the bug, or to someone else who can then decide what do with
it next.
