This is a binary compatibility problem: the LuaTeX executable for Macs
running on PowerPC processors are built on an Intel Mac using a
cross-compilation technique. I'm afraid nothing can be done at the
moment.

Yes, for MacTeX (actually TeX Live) the binaries are built on a actual
G3. But we can't use TeX Live binaries in the Minimals because we need
a more recent LuaTeX.
