After a bit of research it looks like we should probably drop OS X PPC
support now, before the 1.10 branch. Apple has an annoying lack of an
official life cycle policy for OS X but traditionally they only release
updates for the two most recent versions OS X. Leopard (10.5) is now
well outside this window. (Which reminds me - we need to set a schedule
for dropping Windows XP support.)
