I have been able to my small projects on my Intel-based MacBook Pro  
without incident.
So while that doesn't mean the port is perfect, it is fairly complete  
and solid.
There are a few endian issue in a few dark corners of the port which  
are being found and fixed.

A bit more specificity on the problems you are encountering on the  
Intel platform you didn't with the power-pc platform would be helpful.
It is hard to address a general complaint/query without specifics.  
Further, remember, no port is perfect--there are always bugs which  
decline in number and the frequency with which they are encountered  
but some are always there they are just the more obscure ones.
