Thanks. There are not so many packages which failed, but there are so
many important packages depending on them (e.g. SDL) making this pkgsrc
release is nearly useless for PPC users. :|

BTW, I made the experience that some packages are compiled with AltiVec
instructions, when you build them on a G4, so they will only run on G4
and G5 systems.
