I installed it on my OS3.9 (WinUAE) AntiAliasing works fine and looks really good.  :-)

Here is a screenshot showing AWeb with antialiased Fonts:

There is a bug in the datatype but this should be removed in the next release.

I don't know if it is possible to compile AfA_OS for PowerPC Amigas.
You should ask this question to Bernd Roesch (the Author of AfA_OS).
You can post your question in the AFA_OS Forum:

That's a good question... As the PPC version of AROS develops that would be usable on a PowerUP board. Actually running discrete libraries on the PPC while other libraries run on the 68k would be a problem, due to the fact that the 68k and the PPC were never meant to run together and require slow context switches...
