adding to powerpc arch too.
Ok, well, I don't have anything specifically against that code, I was
just wondering if it may not duplicate something we already have (yet

Yepp. Without looking at the rheap allocator in deatail, any reason

Doing a quick glance at lib/genalloc.c I dont see any reason we
couldn't use it. However, Panto will know best, since he wrote rheap.
