Excellent ! We can now talk about an universal binary for MacOSX :)

About libxml++ dependency, if you want to remove this dependency, it's going to
be a major effort and I don't think we have brain power actually. Another thing
to take in mind is the substitution of this library with another one. Actually
the one we use is well maintain and integrated in gnome ... It's out of the
question to take another one with less support/functionality. But as I don't
know any other xml lib, I'm probably not the best to choose a better solution :)
If you have time to check for other solution, feel free to submit an abstract.
But to be honest I don't see any possibilities of spend on something else
before a while.
Also, you talk latter about a script who build all dependencies : what do you
think about integrate this dependencies in the trunk and check them out
directly from svn trunk without to worry about building something ? This will
made things simplier for MacOSX beginners.
