Altivec support for PearPC

[PearPC.Net] The advantage of the new Altivec support is…
- that you have better compatibility in future programs (Tiger already runs better with it)
- more speed, because of the processes floating point math operations can be handled which makes the client faster
- your nifty PearPC installation runs as a G4
New build of PearPC is out that now supports G4 emulation. I fired up my install of PearPC with the new drop, and now it reports as an 800Mhz G4. I think I might need to run this against my real Mac G4 (running at 450) to see how they compare.
Note: You need to change the following in your config file:
cpu_pvr = 0×000c0000
