Can we drop -fsigned-char on PPC at the same time?

Currently, it's massively inconsistent because some packages use
$RPM_OPT_FLAGS while others don't. If you build an executable from a C
file with just 'make testprog', you'll end up with different signedness
of 'char' from that which glibc was built with, etc.
