installed the package for one architecture, use @samp{make distclean}
before reconfiguring for another architecture.
On MacOS X 10.5 and later systems, you can create libraries and
executables that work on multiple system types---known as @dfn{fat} or
@dfn{universal} binaries---by specifying multiple @option{-arch} options
to the compiler but only a single @option{-arch} option to the
preprocessor. Like this:
@example
./configure CC="gcc -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc -arch ppc64" \
CXX="g++ -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc -arch ppc64" \
CPP="gcc -E" CXXCPP="g++ -E"
@end example
This is not guaranteed to produce working output in all cases, you may
have to build one architecture at a time and combine the results
using the @command{lipo} tool if you have problems.
