Comment (by kencu):

 OK, well it similarly does not build the dylibs on a standard PowerPC
 Darwin Leopard system, so at least that is confirmed.

 The issue is libvpx doesn't have a target for {{{powerpc-darwin-*}}} in
 configure, and so it recognizes the system as {{{generic-gnu}}}.
 {{{generic-gnu}}} is not known to be a target that supports shared
 libraries, so the build sets {{{--disable-shared}}}.

 libvpx is famous for doing a lot of it's own target assessment. We've had
 to fix this port many times before for this issue. We will need to get it
 to recognize {{{powerpc-darwin-*}}} as a system, and then perhaps upstream
 that fix.
