Yes, I maintain such a distribution :-). Actually, the suggested output I posted earlier was from a Universal build - the uname output shows Intel only of course, but the CFLAGS do show both architectures. The other way of building a universal binary (other than cross compiling one architecture as I do), is to take native binaries from each platform and literally glue them together. That won't show the differences through CFLAGS, but each section of the universal binary would have it's own native uname output. /D ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
