agg23, this is a G3, right? If so, that's fabulous. This means the only CPU that the nanojit doesn't broadly benefit is the G5.
highlandcattle, the nanojit is a component of Mozilla's JavaScript engine that translates "traces" of JavaScript execution into native assembly code. Previously, the only working nanojits were for ARM, x86, x86_64 and SPARC, and the SPARC one was "unofficial." PPC and MIPS had code present, but it was incomplete for Firefox. So, I finished it and now we have native code compilation for JavaScript for PowerPC for the first time. I submitted it back to Mozilla to get it into the source tree (bug 624164), but I put it in TenFourFox so people can use and benefit from it now. There is at least one bug I know of already, but it's so far been remarkably functional.
