You actually *should* be able to cross compile from linux.  Mind you, the
cross-compiling scripts sometimes need just a bit of tweaking to get working on
linux, whereas they are pretty much guaranteed to work on NetBSD.

As for the branch itself.. a few people are a bit confused by the branch
layout.  Basically, the branch covers sys/arch only.. so the easy way to get
the sources is:

checkout the netbsd cvs tree.
cd sys/arch
cvs update -r ppcoea-renovation -dP .

Then you can keep it up to date by cd'ing to sys/arch and doing a
cvs update -dP .

Please note.. if you generate patches/fixes to the branch, I will gladly
review/commit them for you.  (This goes for anyone who isn't a developer)
