I have done some preliminary porting work (meaning, the easy stuff ;-). 
The platform specific work that remains to be done is the GNU Prolog 
mini-assembler translator to the PPC assembler. There is already a port to 
Linux/PPC but the translator also depends on the runtime architecture and 
calling conventions of Darwin/MacOS X. Right now I'm waiting for the GM of 
MacOS X before trying to continue the porting work. However, I have 
minimal knowledge of the MacOS X assembler and runtime architecture (and 
very little time available to learn it...). I'm not sure I can get the 
translator done.
