Here is an update of the port.
builds fine on sparc, i386, and macppc
build on macppc tested by xsa@
Builds and runs for me on mappc. However it does not *seem* to be
using
the altivec support, which makes a difference on slower hardware.
Do many ppl run OpenBSD on G3 processors??
Not any more, but I'm sure others do or will. What if you tested for
the existence of altivec instructions and acted acordingly at runtime
rather than just enabling the support and making the port >= G4
processor.
