Re: port-macppc/55165: libcrypto/t_ciphers:evp test case fails on macppc



VSX Vector Load Instructions: lxvb16x lxvd2x lxv lxvx lxvh8x lxvw4x


only POWER7 and above has it. I think macppc is too old for that. 
We could disable the assembly code that uses VSX:

./crypto/chacha/asm/chacha-ppc.pl
./crypto/sha/asm/keccak1600p8-ppc.pl
./crypto/sha/asm/sha512p8-ppc.pl

But a better solution is to check for SIGILL and switch dynamically.
You can file a PR with the OpenSSL folks, but I doubt that they would fix it.
