Description
This change contributes the template interpreter for the PPC64 port.

With this change, both interpreters can be used on linux_ppc64 and aix_ppc64.  To build with the template interpreter just omit --with-jvm-interpreter=cpp  in the configure command.

This change almost only touches ppc platform files.
