James,
     I used apt-get -b source <packagename> to build ppc debs from the
source on the Helix server and it worked fine.

No.  As long as you have X and a recent GTK+, you can get the gnome
tarballs and compile from source.  As for prepackaged binaries, I know
helixcode GNOME offers debs for i386 potato and woody, but I don't know
about ppc.

Yes, it is possible :)

Good luck.

Jim
