As was discussed in #gentoo-osx, the correct ARCH for us is indeed 'ppc'.
However, the bug is still valid - the installer should not provide a make.conf
with ARCH specified - this should be specified in profiles. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

If we are officially ARCH="ppc" this breaks the .a file fix done in Bug 58848 as it current checks for ARCH="ppc-macos" IIRC.

Portage devs -  Can we implement a different conditional there, perhaps one that covers all the darwin OSes ? i.e. USERLAND="darwin"

Mac OS X is indeed ARCH=ppc
