I am building from the release tarball only. I am using brltty-5.1
The steps I followed are:

autoreconf (or) autogen
./configure
make

And thus I got the error.

And now when I tried to do this without autoreconf, ie, manually  
adding ppc64le
architecture in config.guess, It builds fine. So, I guess the autoconf  
in autogen
and the autoreconf must have been modifying configure script in some  
way. I have
been using autoconf version 2.69.
