Well, since this is long dead hardware not produced anymore, i don't see how
the
OF could have unbroken itself by moving to powerpc.
It has been age since i looked into this, but to the best of my knowledge (and i
wrote the above code or at least the earlier versions) it should be still
broken.
But YMMV, ...
