Long way to go yet. Mine is a G3 PowerPC so it doesn't have Altivec.
I've tried --disable-assembler but there's still something screwed
up int the Makefile.am.

do you mean --disable-asm-optimizations?  that works for me on
linux-x86 but there could still be something wrong with it...

Yes.

On powerpc, with that option on, it still tries to link libFLAC-asm.la.

I think the problem is that the logic for including the ASM stuff is
done mostly in the Makefile.am and the automake if statements are 
pretty braindead. The solution would be to figure out whether
libFLAC-asm.la is needed in configure.in and remove all the if 
statements in the Makefile.am repacing them with variable substitutions
which automake gets right most of the time :-).
