Hm. I asked around and found a machine I can use that can run PPC binaries, but it's actually, well, confusing. I think this is an x86 machine running Leopard which uses JIT to transparently run PPC binaries. I'm not sure this is really a good test. But if you're interested and can explain the tests to run I can try to get the tests running on this machine: IBUILD:~ gsstark$ uname -a Darwin IBUILD.MIT.EDU 9.8.0 Darwin Kernel Version 9.8.0: Wed Jul 15 16:55:01 PDT 2009; root:xnu-1228.15.4~1/RELEASE_I386 i386 IBUILD:~ gsstark$ sw_vers ProductName: Mac OS X ProductVersion: 10.5.8 BuildVersion: 9L31a
