I just cross compiled Haiku for PPC with GCC 4.

I used x86 Ubuntu to build on.  Very easy to do things with Ubuntu.

Here is the link to the zipped haiku ppc image:

I do not have a PPC so I can not test it out. Just for fun, feel free to 
try it out yourselves and see how it works.

What I found interesting is that 7765 targets were built.  Compared
to x86 gcc4 haiku image which is somewhere around 9600.  Not bad.

...found 58875 target(s)...
...updating 7765 target(s)...
InitScript1 generated/haiku.image-init-vars
