<div>Compiling a code generator that generates 32 bit PPC code should

<blockquote type="cite" cite>One observation on the source code -- the
conditional compile logic interprets -DPOWER as being synonomous with
"compiling on a Mac with a PPC", which causes some

<div>The first PPC platform that Clean was ported to was a Mac, and
POWER was</div>
<div>defined for that platform. When the compiler was later ported to
PPC linux,</div>
<div>the symbol G_POWER was added, for generating PowerPC code.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Clean has not been ported to any 64 bit PPC platform. Porting the
current</div>
<div>version of Clean to a 32 bit PPC linux platform is probably not
much</div>
<div>work.</div>
