I assumed that the precompiled versions would not be optimized for my MacBook, whereas if I compiled my own they would be.
Is this a faulty assumption?

The DMG is a universal binary--it should run fine/natively on your MacBook.

That much I knew. I thought gcc did further optimizations based on the specific processor of the machine in which it was compiled on.

I may be wrong, I have only a vague understanding of things at that level.

Still, in any event, why doesn't it compile "out of the box" (for those who want to)?
