Myth doesn't build under OS X (yet). You'd be welcome to help in that
effort, though! I believe most of Myth should compile under LinuxPPC,
but there are some endian-ness issues moving from x86 -> PPC, and also
I don't know how well libavcodec & libffmpeg handle PPC. Way back in
the 0.7/0.8 days someone reported that they had build mythfrontend on
LinuxPPC, but the changes were never merged into CVS AFAIK.
