I would be very interested to learn why the upload was rejected. AFAIK, a
reason must be given.

At this point, I suggest you resume building regular d-i snapshots for
powerpc incorporating all of the patches of yours that get rejected, so
powerpc users can point to your version when filing bug reports against
stock powerpc d-i. Maybe that will get someone's attention. A rising
number of bug reports stating 'broken in d-i but works fine with Sven's
build' could convince those of more rational leaning.
