This would sadden me greatly, I only bought a G5 a few months back. I would imagine the PowerMacs will be the last to make the transition from PPC to x86 (close to two years away) so it's possible that Apple will use the dual-core PPCs in the meantime. However, I can't see them dumping a dual 2.7Ghz machine for a single dual-core 2.5Ghz.
Unless his Jobsness likes the sound of a Dual dual-core PowerMac (which would totally rock), I don't think Apple will update the PowerMacs significantly any time soon. I could be wrong though.
