This has been out for a while:

http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/yellowdog/1.0/Applications_Emulators.html

I have never used it, though. I think it's like an emulator, but the
processor is the same so that's not needed, but you are still in linux so
a mac crash (rare as they are) doesn't bring down the box. Also, you can
work on bin in konsole w/ shell and friends then compile for mac classic.

I know. I meant mac classic. Mac OS X has mac classic emulation, IIRC.

Linux i386 has basillisk, but it's not that great. Really cool to see
once, though.
