You've just got to love OF portability across machines and architecture

document which claims that on PPC the top of the stack is always in r28,
r20/r21 are scratch registers. r31 is still the stack pointer (and r30 the
return stack AFAIR).

Your asumption about OF portability is in error. Apple does not
use FirmWorks OF code.  Apple created their own "OF" version that
resembles FirmWorks OF vocabulary.
