Comment (by altaic):
Actually, Snow Leopard does not require a 64-bit machine, and all SL apps
are x86/x86_64 Universal.
I've read that gcc defaults to building x86_64, however on my core duo
(read: 32-bit) mac, `gcc -dumpmachine` reports "i686-apple-darwin10" not
"x86_64-apple-darwin10" as I imagine it would if that were true. So
perhaps gcc defaults to the host arch in some manner (there is additional
confusion because even on 64-bit machines SL defaults to booting the
32-bit kernel, but defaults to running and building 64-bit apps).
Regardless, please don't drop 32-bit support! :)
