 That seems like it might be for a self-hosted build, but not cross-built.
 I nuked the macppc/prep DESTDIR and OBJDIR and cleaned out powerpc tools
 on my build host and rebuilt from scratch (since it is relatively fast).
 Then I updated the macppc target.

 I'd already done a 'make clean', so again, I was starting over from
 scratch.

 Yes, 'miniperl' built with the updated system doesn't segfault.  The
 build is still in progress at this time.
