Ross,

Thanks. We will give it a try.  I suspected there might be more to it than that
based on this line:

UNINATIVE_LOADER ?= "${STAGING_DIR}-uninative/${BUILD_ARCH}-linux/lib/${@bb.utils.contains('BUILD_ARCH', 'x86_64', 'ld-linux-x86-64.so.2', 'ld-linux.so.2', d)}"


Which tag should we use to build this for publication?

I was discussing with two of my colleagues and they mentioned that there
is a free-for-opensource path to get a ppc64le virtual machine:
    http://osuosl.org/services/powerdev/request_hosting
Would it be useful for us to set this up to build the uninative
tarballs?  I don't know what the process is for updating them for the
x86 builds.

It seems that the current autobuild runs on an x86 machine as well.
Would there be any interest in a ppc64le slave?
