As was mentioned,
<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/
universal_binary/index.html>
contains a description of converting a universal command line tool to
a single architecture using ditto.
in my particular case:
ditto -arch ppc /usr/bin/nibtool /tmp/nibtoolppc
Then, to solve my particular problem, I changed the PowerGlot
preferences to use /tmp/nibtoolppc and everything works as expected.
Thanks to Peter and Brian for their most helpful assistance.
Douglas.

I am currently using PowerGlot to localize my app. It invokes
nibtool to decipher and update nibs.
nibtool outputs the text of the controls to a strings description
file. This is created in UTF16.
On a PowerPC, this is big endian UTF16, on Intel, little endian as
expected.
It appears PowerGlot ignores the endian marker and hence fails to
understand the output from nibtool on an Intel Mac.
Is there anyway to control the endianness of output from nibtool?
Is there anyway to run a unix command line tool under Rosetta?
Has anyone else solved this issue some other way?
(The current simple solution is to keep a PowerPC Mac available, so
if you are tempted to describe a complicated solution, thanks,
but please save yourself the time.)
TIA, Douglas
