This isn't really an appropriate place to talk about Rosetta
compatibility, which is a feature of Mac OS X for Intel systems, not
part of the Darwin layer.
If you have specific applications (and not speculation) on
applications that run on PPC systems but not under Rosetta, and they
don't fall into one of the categories in <http://developer.apple.com/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/universal_binary/universal_binary_exec_a/chapter_7_section_2.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40002217-CH210-BCICICJH
> of things that specifically don't work under Rosetta, you should
file a bug at <http://bugreporter.apple.com>, with information on the
application and what class of users are affected.

Hi,
From what I have heard X11 fails miserably with Rosetta on the new
Intel Macs.
Is this something to do with the way Rosetta handles things, or the
way the
libraries that X11 are implemented.
No idea haven't tried.
Also, is it possible to implement unix tools as universal binaries?
If it can be compiled Apple's GCC 4.0.1 it likely can be made
universal rather easily.
