As far as I am told, it does.

Yes. But I hope we have fixed those. PPC has a strangeness in the memset
implementation that caused some functions to coredump, as memset does not
work right on mmap()ed physical memory. AFAIK this has been fixed.
I do run LibGGI on Solaris on a regular basis, and so at least everything
with working dlopen and X should run well.
And as I know of that glitch, I suppose fbdev runs well now, as I didn't
hear more complaints after this was fixed.
CU, Andy
