I believe that the real question is when a 64-bit Mac binary will appear

thereabouts. Does anyone have a solid timetable?
My current understanding is this:
There is a conflict between Apple's Software License Agreement for the
XCode software needed to build 64-bit Mac binaries, and the GNU General
Public License that LilyPond uses. The current build system cannot be
adapted for 64-bit without violating Apple's license.
There has been a lot of discussion and ongoing research into how to best
move forward. References to list archives can be provided if they would
be helpful. But, there is no solid timetable for when a 64-bit Mac
binary will appear on lilypond.org.
