Fix powermac error

Thanks for the patch, applied to 1.0.11_rc5.

I'm reopening it because the 1.0.11 final has the same problem.

Hmm... 

It looks like the unconditional patching with powermac.patch causes a bit of a
problem on amd64 (or, perhaps, not only amd64):

# emerge -Dvp alsa-driver
[ebuild   R   ] media-sound/alsa-driver-1.0.11  USE="doc oss -debug" 0 kB 
# emerge -Dv alsa-driver
(...)
 * Failed Patch: alsa-driver-1.0.11-powermac.patch !

*(/usr/portage/media-sound/alsa-driver/files/alsa-driver-1.0.11-powermac.patch)
 * 
 * Include in your bugreport the contents of:
 * 

/var/tmp/portage/alsa-driver-1.0.11/temp/alsa-driver-1.0.11-powermac.patch-16038.out

The file says that there is no file to patch. When I look into the
powermac.patch, I see that it patches
alsa-driver-1.0.11rc5/ppc/../alsa-kernel/ppc/pmac.c

The file is there (at least alsa-kernel/ppc/pmac.c part is correct), but
perhaps the patching should be delayed to src_unpack? It seems to me that under
pkg_setup (where the epatch is issued), portage stays in whichever directory
emerge is being run. In such a case, naturally, all attempts of epatch would
fail miserably, as the patch itself assumes that we are somewhere in the
alsa-driver tree.

Any thoughts?

D'oh, thanks Igor, I actually overseen that, added it blindly :|

Fixed now :)
