I hate to break this to you, but the project is abandonware and has been 
for some time.  I work with one of the developers of a Wine product and 
he had taken up this project and after determining there was little or 
no demand, dropped it.

If you want to, you to can pick up the project and start working on it 
where they left off.  Wine 0.9.27 is about four years or more old and 
that was the last version the project got to work with any reasonable 
level of success.

Yes, Wine should still build on the PowerPC platform and it will run.  
However, to run x86 programs on it, you need an x86 processor emulator.  
Note the comment about byte-swapping.  This is one of the reasons the 
project was abandoned.
