latexsuite for vim (app-vim/latexsuite-1.5) seems to work fine for ppc-macos.

Hrm. Do the docs work? I'm really not a big fan of having a provided vim on osx, since its tags support is really really broken...
You're right. The tags in the docs don't work out of the box. I ran ":helptags /usr/share/vim/vim62/doc", then all the docs were fine, as far as I can tell. Thanks for the heads up.
Ciaranm: is this fixable using a vim script that we could possibly put in baselayout (or the macos vim-core or summat)? I've noticed that tags don't work as well.
The only way this can be fixed properly is to get a sane vim installed.
latexsuite is keyworded ~ppc-macos as of today.
