Raymond,

Please download the new binary for AXIOMsys on MAC OSX PowerPC from:

http://wiki.axiom-developer.org/public/AXIOMsys-ppc-20061102.tgz

This version was created using the version of libintl that is
internal to gcl. I have tried it without any LIBRARY_PATH setting
and after removing the original build directories, and it seems
to work for me.

Everyone else with a PowerPC MAC is encouraged to try it too!

Please let me know how/if it works.

Regards,
Bill Page.
