Unable to detect phantomjs binary inspite of being added in PATH

Hi All,

As the phantomjs binary is not available for my platform/OS- ppc64le/linux at below location

Had to built it from source and have added the PATH location as well

My env details

# phantomjs --version
1.9.20

# npm --version
5.6.0

# node --version
v8.9.0

# arch
ppc64le

# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.3 (Maipo)

# whereis phantomjs
phantomjs: /usr/bin/phantomjs

However am still getting build errors whilst building this package - https://github.com/Modernizr/Modernizr .

Considering PhantomJS found at /usr/bin/phantomjs
Found PhantomJS at /usr/bin/phantomjs ...verifying
PhantomJS detected, but wrong version 1.9.20 @ /usr/bin/phantomjs.
Unexpected platform or architecture: linux/ppc64
It seems there is no binary available for your platform/architecture
Try to install PhantomJS globally

As i understand from the README here that we can still ensure that we use our custom binary of phantomjs present locally by adding it to the PATH .

But as can be seen here - "https://github.com/Medium/phantomjs/blob/master/install.js#L408" which is deduced from here - "https://github.com/Medium/phantomjs/blob/master/lib/util.js#L91" , seems like my platform arch- 'ppc64le' isn't supported here as yet . So this function returns NULL.

Let me know if its possible to add this "arch" type here so that above "npm install" works or any other suggestion to overcome this hitch would be welcome as well.
