sure you could hire a dev or two to get it working well on ARM and/or
PowerPC.
Think of all the money you'd save by not having to hire a bunch of
extra people to
write and maintain mountains of boilerplate.
Remember:

Is that really realistic for a large project like this. I assume it's a
large project regarding the money involved. Wouldn't you divide the
project in several smaller projects and get paid for the smaller projects?
