Well, I haven't actually tested the zImage/uImage on PPC myself because
qemu-system-ppc seems broken on Ubuntu 10.10:

  qemu: hardware error: qemu: could not load PowerPC bios 'openbios-ppc'

So my patch may be wrong and linux/Config.in should allow vmlinux for
PPC instead. I don't know.
The point is that the current defconfig file gets overridden. And that
should get fixed, one way or the other.

Best regards,
