I've found it. If I recall properly, it was related to the fact that on some architecture, char are signed while it is not on others. I think there was also something about bitshifts that didn't worked with big endian architectures, or the fact that int can have different length on different OS/architectures. It was fixed with yet another hack by adding some special compiler flags to GCC and maybe some minimal modifications to the networking code. It then worked again on PowerPC with MacOS 10.2 and Linux.
