+In the meantime I have found the problem on G5 to be the use of the 
+mcrxr instruction. For reasons that are unclear to everyone here 
+(and in violation of PPC specifications, as far as we can tell) it 
+does not seem to exist on the G5. I have also found a Usenet posting 
+from some Lisp people saying that this insn is very slow on the G5 
+(under OSX), making me suspect that it may be emulated in software 
+there.
