Yes, I know. But I thought it was the same value as Install.platform 
from what I have read on xulplanet. Well, anyway. You are right. I have 
tested the xpi you have sent me. It is actually yet another platform 
string (how many are there?? ;-):

SeaMonkey 1.0.1 (PPC) reports "Macintosh; Darwin 8.6.1 Power Macintosh"
SeaMonkey 1.0.1 (Uni) reports "Macintosh; Darwin 8.6.1 i386"

Still, when running a PPC executable in Rosetta on an Intel Mac it 
reports "Power Macintosh". Thus a Intel Mac can be both depending on 
what executable you have.
