If I understand things correctly:

Xen isn't available on 32bit powerpc.

MOL runs 10.4 just fine, probably 10.5 too. It runs on 2.6 kernels
without
problem, but there is a problem right now to run 2.6 linux kernels
inside of
mol.
It all seems a bit overconstrained.
FWIW, I did find Xensource's 05-Dec-05 press release which states:
[...]a port of Xen to IBM’s Power PC architecture by IBM is close to
completion, signaling broad cross-platform adoption of Xen.
So one can hope :-)
This is for G5 and up or other 64bit powerpc machines only though.
