I noticed that Apple's gcc compiler in MacOS X 10.4 creates fat binaries in /usr/lib rather than using a ppc64 or x86_64 subdirectory like FSF gcc. Do the Darwin gcc developers ever intend to replicate the use of fat binaries for FSF gcc (in gcc 4.3 perhaps) or will we always use separate subdirectories for 32-bit and 64-bit shared libraries?
All of that is done by a script that calls configure and post-processes the resultant builds with the exception of libgcc which is built fat in either place. -eric
