I remember reading something about how the IBM jdk uses some POWER ISA instead
of PowerPC. The Gentoo ebuild has this code:
if use ppc; then
dosed s:/proc/cpuinfo:/etc//cpuinfo:g
/opt/${P}/jre/bin/libjitc.so
dosed s:/proc/cpuinfo:/etc//cpuinfo:g
/opt/${P}/jre/bin/libjitc_g.so
insinto /etc
doins ${FILESDIR}/cpuinfo
fi
Which hacks the .so files to look at /etc/cpuinfo to get the cpu type, then
/etc/cpuinfo contains simply the line:
cpu : 604e
I imagine that the two forward-slashes in the sed expression is so that the
replacement string is the same length as the original.
Hope this helps.
cheers,
John
