Larry, I guess POWER is a much less popular platform, so you won't get
the testers easily. but ARM is widespread thanks to cheap boards like
Raspberry Pi.

Building FreeSWITCH 1.4 under Debian Wheezy was quite an easy task,
there was only one small patch that used a newer library because the
one that was used by default was not compatible with non-x86.

The 1.6 under Jessie took a bit of an effort, as all prerequisites
needed to be compiled separately. Now the build procedure is stable
and it should work for any CPU architecture.

Jason gave me access to the machine where he discovered the problem
with fax receiving, so I'll open a jira ticket as soon as I test a
fix. I thought it's a problem with memory alignment, but it looks like
it's rather a problem with floating-point maths.
