If I change the binaries myself it works fine and the compilation is notable faster! We had a lengthy discussion about Snow Leopard. The last message was Yue Wang's proposal to check for 64-bit compatibility: > The hardware test: > Yue:context yue$ if test `sysctl -n hw.cpu64bit_capable | grep -c 1` = 1 ; then echo yes; else echo no; fi > yes > > The software test: > Yue:context yue$ if test `uname -r|cut -f1 -d"."` -ge 10 ; then echo yes; else echo no; fi > yes This test needs to be fixed in: - first-setup.sh - setuptex - mtxrun.lua The biggest problem is the latest one. I'm not sure if Hans is willing to implement that in MKIV and I'm still not decided if I want to mess with that ugly code or not. The reason for the change: - a bit faster and a bit more puristic The reason against the change: - a bit ugly - the 32-bit binaries work - one can always boot in 64-bit mode There's always a third option to provide fat binaries, but as others would probably confirm: they are a bit fat indeed. Three times the original size since we now support 3 platforms. Any other votes?
