Roberto,
     Do you mean that everything has been tested on PowerPC
Darwin or that everything has been tested under Tiger (darwin8)
rather than Leopard (darwin9)? I'll try building ppl 0.9 under
powerpc-apple-darwin9 here and see what the Make check results
are for that target.
                 Jack
ps I can also try using the gcc-4.2 compilers in Xcode 3.1
to see if that makes a difference on i686-apple-darwin9. Oh,
did the folks who tested ppl on Darwin use Apple's gcc compilers
or the FSF ones?
