I started integrating some of your osfmach-related changes a while ago, doing it piecemeal and cleaning things up along the way. I'm so far avoiding the OSFMACH #ifdef and using specific feature checks instead. Where did you get your osfmach and its development headers from? I got osfmk from cv

Great! I have already integrated the "glibc-hurd-powerpc.patch" part of the changes into libc. I am doing some rearranging of the libc code while integrating your changes, to reduce copied code and so forth, and various other nits. I am not yet able to try compiling for ppc, so I may have intro

I have also looked at the mips code, so it could also be based on that (I don't have my code here, so I'm not sure). I haven't tried 'cat' yet, but C-c doesn't work as far as I have tried, so rpc_trampoline is probably buggy. You can get the powerpc manuals at www.mot-sps.com or www.chips.ibm.com

Mark Kettenis did some work a while back on using the hurd with osfmach on x86. Probably that is mostly the same architecture-independent stuff (differences in the IPC system between mach3 and osfmach) Peter has dealt with for the ppc osfmach. I have no clue about the status of the osfmach pa

I stole much of the signal code from sysdeps/mach/hurd/alpha (is there an Alpha port of the Hurd?). Actually, there is at least one bug in my powerpc code: in sigreturn, all the registers are restored except for the one (CTR) which holds the return value right before returning. I don't know if the
