Could you please move it to the front of the list?
I'd very much like to soon upload version which compiles on all
arches, on which build-deps are fulfilled. And it would be
*very* bad to be forced to workaround this self-build-dep thing.

It's mine topic for now, so on your list it can stay where it is.

I hope to work together on this topic.

I'll have to learn more about that asm code for powerpc to catch
how to implement it on other arches.

Sure, I am busy too. I have second studies to study on weekends too.
