Running with Boinc? On ppc64le? #134

Description

@rjzak

I've got a powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu system, and have been able to compile the project and run make install, which installed the binaries in /var/lib/boinc-client/projects/milkyway.cs.rpi.edu_milkyway/. I've also signed in to Milkyway@Home in the Boinc Manager. Yet I still get the messages that my platform isn't supported. Is there a way to get Boinc to fetch and run the binaries with data files pulled from the Boinc server?

It's also interesting to see these lines in the intial CMake output:

-- Performing Test OPA_HAVE_GCC_AND_POWERPC_ASM
-- Performing Test OPA_HAVE_GCC_AND_POWERPC_ASM - Success

As if maybe powerpc is supported?

Unrelated comment, it was also interesting to see this:

-- Performing Test OPA_HAVE_GCC_AND_SICORTEX_ASM
-- Performing Test OPA_HAVE_GCC_AND_SICORTEX_ASM - Failed

I imagine those are even more rare than what I'm using...
