A large portion - by no means all, but a fairly large portion - of the crashes in common programs can be fixed by recompiling with gcc. Where the packages in binary-powerpc originally built with egcs?
mesg, for instance, no longer aborts. dselect does not immediately segfault, but after choosing just about anything on the menu it generates illegal instruction errors. Still, it's an improvement.
