Well, this is one of the minor issues I have with the ppc architecture,
but I am quite happy with it. Even for this I could make a workaround,
but I guess this is something that other might stumble upon.
I would like to move to powerpc, but for the moment there is no official
support for powerpc, for ppc there is, but I don't have the time to move
this to powerpc. So I am afraid I don't have much choice.
Kind regards,
