The attached patch supplies a specific stderr output file for powerpc_apple_darwin to fix this problem. With this change, validate reports {{{ OVERALL SUMMARY for test run started at Sun Nov 4 19:25:15 CET 2007 1988 total tests, which gave rise to 7591 test cases, of which 0 caused framework failures 5932 were skipped 1582 expected passes 74 expected failures 0 unexpected passes 3 unexpected failures Unexpected failures: arrow(normal) arrowrun003(normal) divbyzero(normal) }}} so at least, no harm seems to be done by this patch.
