Not sure what you mean by this...  There are no PPC based versions of Mac
OS X that can't handle running the PPC side of a Universal binary.  That's
been a part of Mac OS X since it's inception, or really from long before
that since it's been a feature of Mach-O since the NeXT days.  The only
thing you have to worry about with using Universal binaries (the marketing
folks say we aren't supposed to call them fat) is that they make for
bigger downloads...
