On MacOS X 10.5 and later systems, you can create libraries and
|

executables that work on multiple system types--known as "fat" or
|
||||
"universal" binaries--by specifying multiple `-arch' options to the
|
||||
compiler but only a single `-arch' option to the preprocessor. Like
|

this:

./configure CC="gcc -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc -arch ppc64" \

Particular systems
|

On HP-UX, the default C compiler is not ANSI C compatible. If GNU

On OSF/1 a.k.a. Tru64, some versions of the default C compiler cannot

a workaround. If GNU CC is not installed, it is therefore recommended
