strace for powerpc

  You may want to test for the presence of the high bit in the CR rather 
than equality

i.e.

+#elif defined(POWERPC)
+		if ((regs.cr & 0x10000000) == 0x10000000) {
+ 		        tcp->u_rval = -1;
+		        u_error = regs.fixreg[FIRSTARG];

  Also, the value should be OR'd to the CR instead of assigned:

+	if (error) {
+		regs.cr |= 0x10000000;
+		regs.fixreg[FIRSTARG] = error;

  Yep, that's correct for the syscall exception.

later,

Peter.
