Status report: THANKS Mark, version 1.28 works perfectly on my Mac. I had to syncronize modules to get MaxGUI, then rebuild documentation to make maxGUI help appear.
Also, I had to 'build modules', I don't know if it's supposed to be a mandatory step after an update (building any GUI-app failed with a linker error**update** actually it doesn't fail: it's a warning: see:
/usr/bin/ld: warning suggest use of -bind_at_load, as lazy binding may result in errors or different symbols being used
symbol _atan2f used from dynamic library /usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/../../../libSystem.dylib(floating.o) not from earlier dynamic library /usr/lib/libmx.A.dylib(single module)
..a ton of similar msg...
Process complete
..but anyhow now everything's up and running.
About the slow file open in MaxIDE: here on my iBook G4 it takes about 3-4 min to open a large file such as MaxIDE.BMX. However, if you deactivate Syntax highlighting in IDE Options, it takes less that 1 second to open same.
So as a workaround to people who would like to keep 1.28, you can disable that. (the other workaround might be to download Brucey's version, however it is not available for PPC Macs yet)
