As far as I can tell, the Mac OS x86 archive of Lilypond on this page:

is actually a PPC binary.
Thanks for being the MacOS maintainer for this amazing program!
Actually, I'm NOT the MacOS maintainer, although I did contribute some
MacOS work. As for the binary being PPC, first impressions might be
deceptive:
• The lilypond binary itself (i.e. the program that does the
typesetting) is definitely Intel native. (See Lilypond.app/Contents/
Resources/bin/lilypond).
• I'm not sure whether the frontend runs translated or native, but as
far as I recall, the actual PPC binary in the app is tiny and only
serves to launch a python script that does the actual work. Therefore,
the frontend might also be running native (and in any case, that would
be fairly irrelevant either way, because the frontend is not
performance critical).
Hope this helps
