most problems on PowerPC are because this is a big endian platform and
i386 is little endian. The kernel side should be clean of any endian
bugs, but there are maybe some code parts that are never got really
intensiv testing on big endian platforms. So I am of course not 100%
sure. On the other side I think that the userspace part still have some
missing byteswap operations, so try to isolate them and I will try to
fix them as soon as possible.
Regards
Marcel
