Talk to Jeffrey Hsu (hsu@freebsd.org). I've been snowed at work and all my (now much less) free time has been committed to the PPC. I can't reasonably delay the PPC work; it's also loaner hardware, and it's much closer. I felt so guilty about the amount of time, I offered to buy the hardware outright; no response on that yet, though.
