Hooray!

Please add the following change/distinction: instead of "...-
PowerMacintosh-..." (a name the second part of which is superfluous
anyway, because of the "Darwin" at the end of the canonical naming
scheme), I propose to use:

...-PowerPC_G4-...

...-PowerPC_G5-...

according to the respective hardware the binary is produced on.
There's no automatic detection to distinguish a G4 from G5 yet, but
I'll think about it and let you know as soon as possible. In the
meantime, I'll (re-)name the OS X 10.4 PowerPC_G4 Sage-4.3.2 .dmg I've
just created accordingly.

Thanks a lot!


Cheers,
Georg
