How can I develop software for a PowerPC? (reddthat.com)

Does anyone know how I can cross-compile software for a 1999 iMac G3 with a PowerPC processor? Are there resources on how to develop for this CPU and is there any community around it?

Do it on-board with openbsd, if that's your bag.

I want to preserve the MacOS 9 on the iMac, but I think I'll do this on the 2005 Mac Mini.
