FYI, these can be called `m68k style compressed images' as well.

I don't agree, and I'll try to explain. I am not a kernel developer (if
I'd write a "Hello World" program from scratch, it'd probably segfault
:-)), but I have been around for a long time, since 2.1.42 or so. From
my experience I would say that if you want to use more up-to-date
kernels than whatev

I've been building kernels from the kernel.org sources since, hmm,
2.2.12, including many of Alan Cox's prereleases, with very few
problems.
In contrast, the few times I've bothered with the PPC development
tree sources, I've had lots of problems. The impression I've
