 Okay I can confirm `libvpx` 1.6.1 builds on 10.5.8 for ppc32 with
 identical patches.

 I used this command: `sudo port -v install libvpx -universal`.

 {{{
 36-47:~ svacchanda$ port -v installed libvpx
 The following ports are currently installed:
   libvpx @1.6.1_0 (active) requested_variants='-universal'
 platform='darwin 9' archs='ppc' date='2022-02-16T21:07:00+0800'
 }}}

 I will attach a custom port file which works on 10.5.8 and 10A190.
