This affects *all* powerpc, not just powerpc32.  For just powerpc32,
you should have:

#if defined(__powerpc__) && !defined(__powerpc64__)

But I'm curious, why not attach to sysmouse(4) and kbdmux(4)?  What
breakage does that cause?  I could maybe see not attaching to
sysmouse(4) by default, if the protocol isn't expressive enough, but
kbdmux(4) should be sufficient.
