The ppc64 architecture was never actually used by the screen saver engine or framework, so this isn't too surprising.

ppc. The linker may change this to ppc7400 under certain circumstances. This is normal, and only means that your screen saver will not load on G3 Macs.

Yes.

ppc7400 = G4
ppc970 = G5
