Did the "uname" change on ppc64 in Rawhide?

I'm trying to figure out why a package that built for F8 and F9 failed
on Rawhide. Here are the logs for the failed Rawhide bid:

    http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=622220

In this build, "configure" dies with:
    checking build system type...
    Invalid configuration `ppc64-redhat-linux-gnu': machine
`ppc64-redhat' not recognized
    configure: error: /bin/sh ./config.sub ppc64-redhat-linux-gnu failed

Whereas on F8 and F9 on PPC64, building the identical SRPM works fine
(http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=622181 and
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=622176) and the
corresponding output from "configure" in both cases is:
    checking build system type...
    powerpc64-redhat-linux-gnu
    [ ... continue configuring ... ]

Any suggestions what's going on here?

Thanks,

MEF
