Here are two suggestions.

1. Try "make distribution" and see how far that gets you. I believe RPM is
one of the targets it will try to build. For more details, see:

  abi/src/pkg/linux/Makefile
  abi/src/pkg/linux/*
  abi/src/config/*

2. Remind the good folks at LinuxPPC to get us a build machine so we can
build official releases, and then you won't have to. :-)
