Summary:                    Build fails on PPC64
Description: 
Build of Asterisk fails on PPC64 because build_tools/strip_nonapi uses "nm"
to get a list of symbols out of the asterisk binary.  However, the output
of "nm" on PPC64 is different from the output on other platforms.  The
problem is especially difficult to diagnose because the invocation of
build_tools/strip_nonapi is unconditionally hidden.  I'll be attaching a
patch developed by David Woodhouse that fixes both of these problems.

On second thought I'm just going to link to David's patch since by
uploading the patch I would be asserting that I wrote the patch which isn't
true.  David's patch can be found here:

As indicated in the Fedora bug report, David Woodhouse should have a
disclaimer on file...
