I was just looking through the firefox source, it looks like there's a
inconsistency in the firefox source. CBLFS has this:

make -f client.mk OS_TEST=powerpc build

make -f client.mk OS_TEST=ppc install

I see the following in the configure script:
configure:5406: OS_TEST=ppc
configure.in:1228: OS_TEST=ppc

Then in the makefile i see this conditional:
xpcom/reflect/xptcall/src/md/unix/Makefile.in:314:ifeq
($(OS_ARCH)$(OS_TEST),Linuxpowerpc)
xpcom/reflect/xptcall/src/md/unix/Makefile.in:323:ifeq
($(OS_ARCH)$(OS_TEST),Linuxpowerpc64)

Try running this sed and then use the following two commands to build
and install:

sed -i "/OS_TEST/s/Linuxpowerpc/Linuxppc/"
xpcom/reflect/xptcall/src/md/unix/Makefile.in &&
make -f client.mk OS_TEST=ppc build &&
make -f client.mk OS_TEST=ppc install

This should fix the same compilation issue on ppc64 aswell.
