I tried to reproduce on a ppc64 box in the gcc compile farm, no dice.  I
double-checked config-host.h has #define HOST_WORDS_BIGENDIAN 1.

Clutching at straws...  you say you tried "an incremental build
out-of-tree".  I also built out-of-tree, but it wasn't incremental.
Could you try a non-incremental build just to exclude the possibility
something wonky in your build tree is breaking "make check" for you?
