(The problem was detected when building chocolate-doom but the issue
is in sdl.)

Old autotools included with SDL fails to detect dynamic linker support
on powerpc64 and powerpc64le.

See SDL bug 3481: https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3481

+sdl: Add powerpc64 and powerpc64le support to old autotools.
+
+Fixes build on powerpc64le which doesn't fail but produces a static library
+rather than a dynamic one (which causes link errors in some packages using
+libsdl).
