SC obviously works on x86 and on SPARC (I think that's Infrant
ReadyNAS) but note that Infrant/Netgear has SC specially compiled for
SPARC.

As for PowerPC and ARM, I believe the main stumbling block is the perl
CPAN modules.  Some of them have to be specially made for the
architecture they are to run on.  So SC has to omit certain modules or
use different ones depending on the architecture.

I'm not the expert on this but there are posts in the Linux/Unix forum
regarding problems installing SC on PowerPC and ARM architectures,
mainly due to perl CPAN module incompatibilities.
