The only dependencies are pyrex, libxslt, and python. None of these are a
problem on any architecture.  Certainly more platform independent than some
java programs.

I have tested lxml on ppc.  I don't have a sparc or mips platform to test on,
but there were no problems on ppc.  Just as the previous bug discusses perl,
here is python, or any other scripting language .  

Java is much less platform independent as there is no fully compliant open
source VM, yet has many more packages marked ppc.  I've had more trouble with
some of these than any perl, python, ruby, scheme, lisp, c, c++, haskell, etc.
languages.  How many people talk about Emacs crashing constantly?

As said on the other bug, only file bugs about arches where you've tested the
ebuild yourself and it's known to work. There's no such thing as "oh this
script must work everywhere, it's just $lang."
