Any update on whether ioquake3 can work on non-Altivec PowerPCs,
either powerpc or powerpcspe, with the patch and testing procedure
from <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=701561#32>?

I'm considering #701561 to be "won't fix" until/unless someone tells me
that it can actually work (and not just compile).
