Sure, the list of immediately affected packages is limited.

Is there a bugreport or other reference for the powerpc issue I can
include for more information in the RM bugs?

Currently nodejs still built successfully on powerpc, so filing the RM
bugs is a bit premature.

The affected packages were retrieved from UDD as follows:

 udd=>    SELECT DISTINCT source
 udd->      FROM packages
 udd->     WHERE distribution = 'debian'
 udd->       AND release      = 'sid'
 udd->       AND architecture = 'powerpc'
 udd->       AND source      != 'nodejs'
 udd->       AND (depends    LIKE '%nodejs%' OR
 udd(>            recommends LIKE '%nodejs%')
 udd->  ORDER BY source
 udd-> ;
        source
