I note that Lion EULA now permits use of up to 4 instances of the OS running in Virutal Machines, so you be able to use OS X (10.6 or 10.5 or 10.4) in a VM (VirtualBox, Parallels, VMWare, etc) to do your PowerPC builds ?? Maybe over kill, but it's also not a bad way to do some testing on the target OS :)

From what I've seen the EULA allows only 2 VM instances, and it only seems to apply to Lion, not 10.4, 5, 6, 3, 2, or 1. I believe older versions' EULAs still apply to those versions, and it's my understanding that VMs are not allowed for older versions, except using server versions of OS X.

I'm not an attorney, and I'm intending this as a caution and not legal advice. I would recommend carefully reading the relevant EULAs and/or consulting an attorney before running any version of OS X in a VM.

Cheers,
Josh
