Just whip up a PPC UNIX version of Eu for that. Doesn't have to be Mac 
specific since MacOS X is just BSD UNIX

actually, there's the standard CODE resource for 68k programs, and then 
PowerPC code is contained in the data fork. that's why you get an error 
running a PPC program with no 68k code(no CODE resource)

ah, you're forgetting MacOS X's UNIX-side. you can simply open a 
terminal and call Eu like "exu hello", of course it'd be kind of 
pointless because it wouldn't be Mac-specific, just PPC UNIX-specific.

PPC 603? i made a mistake and got a Centris 610. doesn't even have an 
FPU :)
