Please also pay attention to the CPU type. If you want your binary to run on all
the machines capable of running OSX 10.6.8, you might need to be more careful 
than just 
running Volker's recepy.
Specifically, Core2 Duo chips are pretty much screwed up under OSX 10.6, as 
their 64-bit 
capabilities aren't really well-supported.

At least it would be important to know the CPU type you use exactly.

Just in case,
Dima
