The crashes are intermittent, so it might also be just that I'm breaching a

Any help appreciated...


Remember that the big thing which will cause exceptions on a PowerPC but not on an Intel is misaligned data fetches.

Anything going anywhere near the PowerPC vector unit needs to be on 16 byte boundaries. Normally malloc() and friends will handle all of that for you, but it may be that you're doing something which spoils that somehow. Five minutes with a debugger will show whether or not this is the problem.
