you can download it from http://bio7.mech.columbia.edu/~gerard/
I don't understand why this would be so: why cross-compiling PPC on
my Intel Mac (as I did when making the universal binary) would make
it so much slower than native compile. Does anyone have any ideas?

I reported also slow typing on a G4 mac; I want to add that this is
not a universal version but a svn version that I compiled on a G5;
I think there is a problem with the PPC version.
