Weeh! I think I know what the problem is!

common/cpu.c
134 elif defined( SYS_LINUX )
135 uint32_t x264_cpu_detect( void )
136 {
137     /* FIXME (Linux PPC) */
138     return X264_CPU_ALTIVEC;
139 }
140 #endif

Please try attached patch, and tell me if it fixes the problem.
If it doesn't, please send a complete GDB backtrace so that I can
identify where exactly does it choke.

Guillaume
