Yes, they just build normally on ppc as well. Or you use some
specialized kernel for ppc from <http://ppc.bkbits.net/>, just check
it out with bitkeeper. I, for example, use the benh-branch from
http://ppc.bkbits.net:8080/linuxppc_2_4_benh on my iBook.

Perhaps you should first try the Debian kernel for PowerPC. If it
works well, there is no need to build a kernel for yourself.
