with "powerpc-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build  
5493)" also succeeds, same with "powerpc-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.2.1 (GCC)  
4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5577)". Simple make and 'make bootstrap' with  
"powerpc-apple-darwin9-llvm-gcc-4.2 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc.  
build 5555) (LLVM build 2064.3)" end with this consistently:

        make[2]: *** [bootstrap-emacs] Error 1

The two built and installed pieces of Emacs.app are completely  
useless, they can't even create the initial frame, they already crash  
before they can appear.
