I would expect the port to be straigthforward, but I'll need to get access to such a machine to see whether the application binary interface differs between Linux/AMD64 and MacOSX/AMD64. So, the answer to your question is: MacOSX/AMD64 will be supported at some point, but I can't say when. > PS: I believe there is no support for 64 bit PPC machines. Is that still > true? I did a MacOSX/PPC64 port a few months ago. That will be released as part of 3.10, or you can give it a try now using the CVS trunk sources. - Xavier Leroy
