Please add PowerPC (and non x86 based binaries) to the mozilla squeeze-backports repository for iceweasel 3.6 and up

I can understand not all packages can be listed, but iceweasel/firefox is a linux staple used by just about everyone and a number of websites (gmail/hotmail) are now rejecting browsers older than 3.6. 

The backport support for non-x86 archs stop at 3.5 and that makes things rather inconvenient if you are running very old equipment.  

Apple has long ago abandoned support for their powerpc based machines, but with linux I was still able to squeeze some life out of them for those who don't need the latest and greatest (namely the elderly). 


thanks,
Ian
