OK, somehow, I got the impression that it would be wrong to change the value of $machine (I thought it was intentionally set to the triplet and shouldn't be changed), but I changed my mind after your comments. Besides that, I had mentioned that ".../powerpc64" would be implicitly implied, as if it was something undesired, but that should be OK since files that are specific to big-endian or little-endian can be moved to their subdirectories (powerpc64/be and powerpc64/le). With that in mind, I implemented Andreas suggestion (be/ and le/ subdirs) and I'm sending it in a new thread.
