--- Comment #1 from Amit B <aramswar at in.ibm.com> ---
On further analysis of the binary it seems that it is based on big endian power
architecture as shown below

# file busybox-powerpc64
busybox-powerpc64: ELF 64-bit MSB executable, 64-bit PowerPC or cisco 7500,
version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, stripped


It would make sense to provide little endian power binary as well. On our
current ppc64le for file we getting following info for e.g.

# file oc
oc: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, 64-bit PowerPC or cisco 7500, version 1 (SYSV),
dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32,
BuildID[sha1]=1e68fbc57a4d18defe1780279736261e15b8e072, stripped


Note the difference as MSB executable vs LSB executable.
