I finally managed to avoid this problem because I was able to build 
clang 5.0 and then built harfbuzz with clang 5.0 and this worked fine.

Could we add -fpermissive only when using gcc? is the compiler type 
available? maybe something like compiler + mac version.

Since PPC does not have clang, it will be bitten by this issue.
