If anyone has any interest in compiling the UnixOSProcessPlugin to
use with the mac carbon vm for PowerPC
you must compile it with
PER_ARCH_CFLAGS_ppc -fast -mtune=7450 -mcpu=7450 -fPIC
otherwise a structure alignment issue will prevent usage of OSPipes,
the writePrim will fail.
Mind the interest level in using the plugin with the mac carbon vm on
powerpc has been zero, until recently which
help uncover this issue.
The darwin unix based VM does not have the same issue.
