I'm not sure where I got it, but I have a nice book on PPC assembly that gives
quite a bit of help, called "Optimizing PowerPC Code", by Gary Kacmarcik.
It's a fairly early book, but not much has changed since the PowerPC was new.
All you need to know is that the 604 and up have three integer units instead
of one.

Seconded.  This book, in combination with the Motorola reference
manuals (available in PDF from their web site) is my complete assembly
library; it's always been enough.
