Really glad to hear it's working for you Rick.  I know you've been waiting a while for something on the Mac that's easier to set up.

I'll take all the bug reports I can get.  I can't guarantee that I'll get to them in any particular order or timeframe, but I'd at least like to know about them.  I'm thinking about setting up some sort of bug-tracking system so that folks can submit feature enhancement and bug requests and I can not forget about them.

In theory, there's no big reason why the current code will not run, other than possibly assumptions about byte order that might not be correct.  That being said, it's targeted towards Snow Leopard, and I plan on using Snow Leopard only technologies in it.  Since Snow Leopard doesn't run on PPC, those machines will be left behind.  The current binary distribution is only compiled for i386 and x86_64 architectures.
