I did all of the above and whatever was in the README then ran this:

ibook-g4:Build9E17 root# darwinbuild -build=ppc_only xnu	# but  
`ctfconvert' seems to be missing.

/bin/sh: /usr/local/bin/ctfconvert: No such file or directory	# so  
build fails. Then I tried this:

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

  BUILD TIME: 0h 25m 49s
EXIT STATUS: 2

# Then I tried this:
ibook-g4:Build9E17 root# darwinbuild -build=ppc_only dtrace

Build log begins here:

Any help is highly appreciated.
