Morning everyone. I'm the "openmaintainer" of the SBCL port under MacPorts, where we are having problems getting a build working for PowerPC/Darwin. Can anyone comment on <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/65188#comment:5> that I can relay useful information for?

I don't have access to ppc-macos-* so I am just currently trying to relay information to those with the actual hardware.

And I am guessing by the problems listed in that Trac ticket I referenced that the actual building of ppc/darwin had bitrotted some time ago.

easye: I think it's worth saying that if there are users willing to step up and maintain our ppc/darwin support, we'd reinstate it on that basis

the problem we were having is: no hardware, no access to hardware, no demand from users, no ability to check whether changes for other platforms cause breakage
