is there some way to "tune" bjam to emit G3-compatible code? cuz i'm getting this:

This is most likely because you're only building for G4 machines and greater. If you run otool -f -v <binary>, you'll probably see cpusubtype set to CPU_SUBTYPE_POWERPC_7400 (which basically means G4 or greater).

To fix, as a minimum, you need to make sure that your deployment target is set to 10.4 or less and make sure your architecture setting is ppc rather than ppc7400.

Kind regards,

Chris
