I exactly experience the same problem on my ppc-linux box even using the
last biss-net package for the 0.91 release. Kaffe seems to work fine (very
slowly but fine : no jit :-( ) until I use graphics.

In addition I can't compile the kaffevm 0.91 cause the file machine.c in
kaffevm/intrp seems to have not been updated and is the same has in the
0.90 release. So as the struct _methods has changed since the last release
this file can't be compiled.
