Well, if you start fslaunch / setup, goto the speed tab. Here you can see if the ppc (warpos) is used, else the 68k is used for sound & gfx.
The main program actually doesn't use powerpc.library at all, but some external libs do.

There should also be an update, which you can download from the hyperion site (when registered).
This one was free [years ago], don't know if it's still there.

You don't have to register the game to play, just login the hyperion site and download the update from here (it should be visible when logged in): http://hyperion-entertainment.com/index.php/downloads?view=files&parent=20

Hmm, it seems you do have to register the game. If it doesn't show anything yet, they might need some time to process your request.
When this is done correctly, it should show the patches in the 'older' dir.

And you can grab the full game from the download page (incl. serial). There are 2 versions, 1 for 68k/wos and 1 for os4.1 fe.
