(obvious answer incoming)
Because Intel has the Lion's share of the computing architecture
marketplace and because powerpc is still a secondary architecture to
Intel...?

Again, I'm not sure why you're posing this question to this thread
because it's not really relevant to the issue that needs to be
resolved (in this case it's missing symbols related to xlocale stuff,
and someone probably forgot to run make tinderbox/make universe).

The FreeBSD build system supports cross-building on several
architectures, so I can build ppc on Intel, Intel on ppc, mips n32 on
ppc, etc. If this didn't work, FreeBSD would be in a world of pain.

Thanks,
