I guess not. All the PPC optimized cores use gpr2, which is actually
reserved for system use in System V. PowerUp doesn't really use it, which
explains why the cores work ok under PowerUp. Presumably, if there are
any other System V PPC clients out there, they don't care much about gpr2
either. MorphOS looks like the only exception.
