hello,

I noticed that the website only claims fresco to have been built on x86 and 
sparc.  I have an old ppc machine lying around, so I gave it a go, and it 
compiled without a hitch.

the machine is a power mac 6100/60 
(http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/powermac/stats/powermac_6100_60.html)

the machine runs debian/stable, and I had to add these packages in order to 
build fresco:

zlib1g-dev
omniidl
omniidl-cxx
omniorb-dev
libfreetype6-dev
libpng-dev
libggi2-dev
libsdl1.2-dev

it took about 12 hours.
