Yes, {{{openmaintainer}}} can be added.
Truthfully, I do not know how to test for the port having a universal
build as this program is designed to communicate with the System
Management BIOS/Desktop Management Interface (SMBIOS/DMI) for Intel-based
processors only.
PowerPC processors use OpenFirmware which is incompatible with this
program. I am only aware of OpenFirmware being accessible from a reboot
and inputting the key sequence Command + Option + "O" (Letter "o" as in
"no") + "F" and holding until you hear he boot chime twice.
Other than that I apologize as I am unable to verify that this program
will compile successfully on a PowerPC as it certainly will not run if it
is able to be installed on a PowerPC-based system.
