We have added powerpc nodes to our previously purely x86 cluster. Moab 
4.2.0p3 is currently running on an x86 machine along with torque 1.2.0p5 
- it works fine.
When I tried to use 4.2.2p3, the powerpc machines could not talk to the 
schedule server. Here is a section from the log that shows what went 
wrong in response to a showq:

08/01 09:51:55 INFO:     connect request from 10.0.51.1
08/01 09:51:55 INFO:     received service request from host 'b1n1.vampire'

08/01 09:51:55 INFO:     packet sent (386 bytes of 386)
08/01 09:51:55 MSUDisconnect(S)

Could this be a endian issue that was introduced in 4.2.2? Any other ideas?
