Peter, thanks for your comments. I build libtool from source, and am using 1.5.24. I manually ran the large link command, inserting `-arch i386 -arch ppc' after g++, and it did create a universal library: http://pastey.net/75062
But it's not clear to me what I need to do to get libtool to do this on its own, and also why it's not doing it. I modified CC/CXX in the Makefile to also pass the arch flags at that point, and the only difference is that when libtool is called, it gets them twice, and it proceeds to strip them out of the command twice!
