To the best of my knowledge both Léo and Chris have both left the
project.

As it currently stands on master, go-1.19 doesn't build for ppc64le. I
mentioned on IRC that it looks like the 'patch-gcc:lib phase in go-1.17
but for ppc64le, but after trying a few different combinations it looks
to me more like the test failures on aarch64 (which I haven't looked at
in forever).

Looking at it I'm convinced that we are missing patching something on
our end, and that these tests are probably supposed to pass.

My suggestion is to skip the tests on go-1.17+ on ppc64le and adjust the
note that all the listed architectures should have their test suite
reviewed to figure out what we're missing. There's something about the
internal linking on non-x86 architectures that needs investigating.
