Also G5 Mac emulation in QEMU is probably not that good as G4 is now so 64 bit version may have more problems than 32 bit ppc.
Well, the processor itself is very well emulated, that isn't the problem.
The machine however ... our G5 Mac99 model is some kind of franken mac which tries to pretend to be a U3 based G5 with bits and pieces that only exist on 32-bit machines and a U3 that doesn't really like like a real U3 ;-) It's definitely making MacOS X do weird weird things, like try to instanciate the MacRISC2 PE on top of a 970 CPU.
Based on spare time availability, I want to look into fixing this all up but only after I've tightened the Mac99 model a bit more to the point we can run 10.5, have networking, etc...
