Hum this looks like the "smart" symbol extraction script needs to be updated to 
handle whatever is particular to ppc :)

Please attach the output of

[Comment 4 Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) 2013-02-03 14:29:40 UTC]

Thanks. It seems that binutils on ppc64 uses a different layout for ELF files than on amd64. Which is OK, because the failing test is checking for windows-compatible symbol visibility - and windows compatibility is completely irrelevant on ppc64 :)

+  03 Feb 2013; Alexandre Rostovtsev <[e-mail]>
+  gstreamer-0.10.36.ebuild:
+  Disable windows-portability tests on non-x86/amd64 arches, where they can
+  fail due to different ELF layouts (bug #455038, thanks to Agostino Sarubbo)
