Gaah.

When there are improvements/fixes to the sha1ppc.S side, how are
you going to keep that in sync with darwin_ppc_gen.pl?  If that
script *_gen.pl were a postprocessor that munges CPP output from
sha1ppc.S to make it assemblable with an old assembler, it would
be one thing.  But this looks horrible.
