	the xmame/xmess setup uses a standard:
		./configure
		make

	setup, not sure if they have any precompiled RPM's available for ANY architecture, let alone PPC, you could concieveably compile ANY x86 source on PPC, but sometimes you run into endianness issues, and I don't know the compiler flags well enough as of yet to edit most makefiles.....
