Followed the instructions and checked with diff, absolutely no
difference, which leads me to believe it's failing memory; but there's a problem. This is a PowerPC machine (eMac G4), and memtest86+ seems to be
dependent upon an x86 architecture. So, is there any good way to test
this, or do I just pull out one of the 512 DIMMS and hope for the best?

I think an Apple hardware diagnostics bootable CD should have been supplied with your machine. There are also 3rd party ones (TechToolPro?) that are supposed to be better.

But nothing beats actually swapping RAM.

Stroller.
