Hi folks, I have built the gcc version 4.5.1 on my MacBook Air running MacOS X Snow Leopard (to create a native gcc). I used the following configure options: ../gcc-4.5.1-src/configure --prefix=/usr --with-multilib=all --program-suffix=-4.5.1 Because of the parameter --with-multilib=all, I expected that the resulting gcc toolchain will allow me to make both 32 and 64 bit software. For that I also expected the standard libraries to be muli-format (mulitlib?). But libstdc++.6 is only in 64 bit format: bash-3.2$ file /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib: Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library x86_64 There is another library, this one is multi-format. I don't know if this got created by compiling the gcc or if I had that one before builing gcc: bash-3.2$ file /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.0.9.dylib /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.0.9.dylib: Mach-O universal binary with 3 architectures /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.0.9.dylib (for architecture i386): Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386 /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.0.9.dylib (for architecture ppc7400): Mach-O dynamically linked shared library ppc /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.0.9.dylib (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library x86_64 The problem is that when I start some programms, for example eclipse or firefox, it links to the libstdc++.6.dylib library but needs the 32-bit code. How can I tell the gcc to create the standard libraries with both i386 and x86_64 format (don't really need ppc)? Best regards, Torsten
