I known a little more than nothing about Macs and PPC (A.K.A. PowerPC).

What I have is an embedded, PPC based, controller board that I am 
programming on and want to get D code compiled for it. IIRC Macs use PPC 
and therefor I am assuming that the GDC mac compiler is generating PPC 
code. However, the only systems available to compile on are x86.

So I need a D compiler and associated stuff that will run on an x86 and 
generate PPC6 ELF files.

If I am in error with some of my assumptions, please point them out.

If you are still confused as to what I want, don't worry, I now am also.
