Ankur,

I  had  similar  problems  where  F20  abrt  was  rejecting  all ppc64
backtraces.

I  opened  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1119072 and the
abrt  developers were able to make significant progress with the this.
They  were  also  able  to fix issues where the retrace server was not
handling other elements for ppc64.

Try  the  lastest  abrt  updates  in updates-testing. If those fail to
work,  open  a  bug  report.  It  probably  helps if you save the abrt
capture  directories  for  each failure, and obtain the backtrace from
the core dump using gdb and post that - see my BZ and the related ones
that the developers opened for details.

In my experience, the abrt developers do a great job handling reported
issues.
