What does this do to the size of the initrd, and is that therefore going
to cause problems for ppc?

Use static busybox, not busybox-anaconda (#500527)

gzipped busybox has 1.2MB so I suppose initrd will be 1.2MB bigger

well, it's relative, the busybox.anaconda gzipped has 600KB, so there's
a 600KB difference, not 1.2MB, and this is not counting all the
libraries we need to put to the initrd, if we want to use the
dynamically linked busybox, which could take up the remaining 600KB
difference, so at the end the size may be the same.
