Maybe, then I guess a ppc machine would also be enough. Do you happen
to know how to trick caml's ./configure ?

I don't think a ppc machine would be enough since a ppc mac cannot run x86 programs but a x86 mac can run both ppc and x86 programs. 
Not sure how to trick configure either. I've done this process before with Haskell programs, but in that case used pre-built binaries of the compiler for each platform. 

However, ocamlopt can be configured to produce x86 asm on a PPC, can't it ?

And XCode can build universal binaries on both ppc and x86...

So I guess you just need to call gcc with the right parameters...
