Has anyone tried to run it on OS X 10.1? I know there were problems
with the compiler changes that Apple put in but I don't recall if
there's an easy fix.

If someone can say "it should work" I'll try to get it compiled and
working there--I want to take my PowerBook on holiday and do some
hacking...

I am quite sure PS2 is not x86. It's some kind of RISC with a lot of
special 3d and sound hardware, but I forget which.
