I've been playing around with a patch that should make this easier for you. I'll see if I can clean it up and upload today...

The idea here is to make a test that people that happen to don't have a ppc machine around (i.e. nearly everyone) can run. So yes, I think a extra test is needed, particularly as it looks like it should be easy to write (if not, then I'd at least like to know why). I was thinking of a non-execution test similar to https://reviews.llvm.org/D43686, where you just set a breakpoint and verify it has been resolved to the right file address.
