What impact do the have on boards in arch/ppc being able to build?

Byt the way what are the plans for powerpc?
We have:
arch/ppc
arch/ppc64
arch/powerpc

It was my understanding that arch/powerpc was supposed
to be the future unified powerpc architecture but it
does not even provide a defconfig.

And I do not see too much happening to do so - but that maybe
because I looked at a wrong place.

You must have looked in the wrong place. :-)

arch/ppc is scheduled for removal from mainline in June.

arch/powerpc is under significant development, with lots
of defconfigs in arch/powerpc/configs.

arch/ppc64 is long dead.
