The default Go compiler doesn't (at least yet) support 32-bit PowerPC. Only 64-bit PowerPC in Go tip (what will be Go 1.5).

You can try gccgo, though.

Gccgo doesn't work on OS X.

Oh, I missed that part. I have some old PowerPC Mac laptops lying around, but they're running Linux.

Even if Go supports 32-bit powerpc, the minimum supported version of OS X is 10.6.
