Bugzilla Bug 81482

Please try sci-mathematics/snns with python in USE on PPC (especially try to
run the python-examples provided)

It compiles and installs correctly, and seems to work okay, only one of the
python examples complete succesfully.  I'll mark it ~ppc, but it probably
shouldn't be brought into ppc yet.  Reopen the bug if you'd like me to test it
more.

I'd like to know the output of the failed examples - are you sure it's not just
missing files? (you need to copy some example networks/patterns from the main
examples directory to your current directory to run some of these scripts).

After copying over the required files (sorry!):

Output from customtest.py:
Builtin functions: 281
After adding: 286
Function number 279 Info: ('LinearScale', 12)
Function number 280 Info: ('Norm', 12)

encoder.py seems to work fine.
general.py seems to work fine.
som_cube_winners.py seems to work fine.

whoopsie, that doesn't look good. I'm afraid I will need some time and access
to a PPC box to check this. I think I remember there was some box I could use
for testing - could you please give me a hint where to look it up?
