I've spared myself knowledge of such differences for the most part. The whole
situation is ridiculous IMO. Apple took a short-cut to avoid changing their
build tools and we're still paying for it. It doesn't even use the proper PPC
SYSV ABI.
It certainly hasn't made it easy for the guys trying to port QEMU's ABI
emulation layer.

Like what? :)
BTW: You have less than a year to add PowerUp support ;)
I'm sorry if I haven't been working on e-uae OS X, but I've been busy working
on Darwine since Apple's announcement. Learning some nitty-gritty about OS X's
event handling and graphics. Not too dissimilar to what e-uae needs to squeeze
out some better performance and compatibility.
Anyway, thanks a lot Richard. I'll find some time to test your changes later
this week.
