Guy,

Relax. :)  I think he means to migrate the PPC port from a CG to a project
under the "Emerging Platforms CG".  I'm sure that'd be an atomic operation,
with consistent, isolated, and durable results.  I believe that was the
original intent when the Emerging Platforms CG was proposed and created.  I
must have upped the ante for when that would happen by asking for the new
MIPS project creation.
