If I remember = it correctly, it worked on 64-bit PPC. So it was a 32-bit specific problem and I go = some feedback that the problem might be related to the old toolchain. This time it is on 64-bit PPC using the clang tool chain. Since the = Blackbird used petitboot, I'm not sure if it is intended to work on that platform. Also = not sure on the Mac G5.
