Please check that all of your varargs usage conforms to the C standard.
Using varargs on PowerPC with the wrong data types, or direct manipulation
of pointers to the va_list usually leads to stack corruption rather quick.

Sorry if that was already obvious to you; I have no idea what has already
been tried, or for how long the bug persists (if there are no changes to
varargs related code since the last version known working, you can safely
ignore this).
