Re: configuring for Mac

Agree, I think it should detect the architecture and build for that  
architecture, we could have separates binaries packages for PowerPC  
and Intel for distribution. It would be convenient, for example por  
DarwinPorts or Fink to have just one Universal package that you can  
download and run on both platforms, but if the conflicts with -M flag  
can't be solved I don't see the problem of having 2 packages. Don't  
know how the rest of the open source available for the Mac is going  
to handle this thing Universal.
