Nigel,
Did a distclean build on the Linux PowerPC backend and frontend with your patches and everything works great. There must have been something going on with some stale libraries.
Thanks for you help.

Interesting. I would have thought that the PPC backend's CPU usage should have increased by the same amount, since it is also having to byte-swap all audio and video data.
Those patches cause the OSS or ALSA libraries to do byte swapping. I wonder if there is a bug in that code? (or in the PPC implementation)
Do you know what audio bitsize is being swapped? I suspect 24bit is a lot slower to swap than 16bit
Thanks for the update.
