You don't need CLFS. I built a couple of systems just using a slightly modified LFS (i.e., obviously GRUB is not needed). The first base system was running Mandrake PPC on a beige G3 PowerMac.
The biggest difference to watch for is the name of your dynamic linker. On x86, it's ld-linux.so.2. On a powerpc, it will be ld.so.1. As Jon said, also you'll use a different bootloader. If you have a new world Mac (any of the recent non-beige ones, ie, a G4) then yaboot should work well. Also, in addition to the packages built in LFS, you'll probably want/need mac-fdisk or parted for editing partitions.
