Nikos -- I haven't tried 3.8 on PPC32.
The acceleration architectures are so different that I'm hesitant to draw any conclusions on PPC32 based on x86 failure/success. If I get a chance, I'll try to test out a more current kernel on my ppc32 box, but that probably won't be for quite a while yet, sadly.
