We've added a PPC version for macs (for the separation workunits). Let us know how it works here.

Well, my computer is now working on something, so it seems to be working.

Thanks! My G5 seems to be doing OK with v0.41, but I have a G4 that’s producing nothing but errors.

That's weird. I compiled it on a G4 with OS X 10.4 targeting 10.3.9. What version of OS X?

Actually, nevermind. I missed the Darwin version on the computer page.

Just to confirm, the OS is v10.3 (with the last update available—.9 I believe). It also has a pretty old version of BOINC, running as a service. I could try updating it, but I haven’t had much luck with newer BOINC versions on my Panther/G4s: most recently I tried a v6 on a slightly older machine, but it wouldn’t run (although installed without apparent problems) and I had to revert to a late v5.x.
