Comment(by Peter_Dyballa@…):

 Replying to [comment:8 jeremyhu@…]:
 > How commonly is this occurring?  I don't think it's worth the time to
 come up with a kludge in the compiler when the fix is relatively straight
 forward in the header and worked around in individual ports.  I'd rather
 put a note about this in the wiki and work around it with -faltivec in the
 emacs port.

 Software compiled for my PowerBook G4 is compiled with -fast -faltivec
 -mcpu=7450 -mtune=7450 -maltivec ... to make full use of the CPU and its
 capabilities. I started test-wise with almost no optimisation (and because
 there is something buggy in the code for the NS variant of GNU Emacs
 24.x). I can live with the recent state and I also try to substitute one
 or the other C header file with the version from an Xcode with GCC 4.2.
