I just installed Snow Leopard in my laptop and the x86_64 ocaml  
appears to work fine. I noticed that in your configure log the gcc  
compiler is still listed at the end as 'gcc', while in mine it is 'gcc  
-m64'. Perhaps you need to cleanup with 'make distclean'  and  
reconfigure before compiling the x86_64 target?

Previous versions of gcc in Mac OS X allowed you to pass the -mmacosx- 
version-min=10.4 option to target the minimum API that you wanted to  
support. I suppose this still works with the gcc 4.2.1 included in  
XCode 3.2, but haven't tried it yet.
