New submission from Ned Deily <n...@acm.org>:
2.6.5 release blocker
3.1.2 release blocker
For 10.6, new universal build options were added to reflect the dropping of
support in 10.6 for the ppc64 arch. The new options:
--universal-archs=3-way -> -arch {i386,x86_64,ppc)
--universal-archs=intel -> -arch {i386,x86_64}
however do not add the executables and symlinks to select a "-32" or
"-64" variant like the existing "--universal-archs=all" does and so
these new build variants always run in 64-bit with no way to override
it. A simple test in configure.in needs to be changed to recognize
these new options.
Trunk (2.7) and py3k (3.2) use a new execution-time mechanism to select 32- vs
64-bit execution and so do not exhibit this problem.
(Ronald and I agree this should be a release-blocker. Patch to follow.)
