We are trying to build packages on some evbppc systems (under -6/current) and finding them a bit crashy under load. So I am wondering to what extent packages built on a macppc (that's from 2001 or so, dual-core 500 Mhz G3) will run on an evbppc. I would expect all the instructions in the G3 to be present in the new chips (although I understand the memory management architecture is different). But, I wonder if the ABI is somehow different. I'd appreciate advice voting for: yes, it ought to work maybe - worth trying you're doomed, don't bother
