Hi,
As of r5239 in trunk, the default build process will no longer build for both
i386 and x86_64, but just x86_64. This is an attempt at accelerating the build
process and reducing the framework objects size.
We are however not removing any i386-related code from the project, and one
will still be able to build a 32-bit version of MacRuby by passing archs=i386
to rake. We will also consider fixing i386 bugs. But we want to start
discouraging people to target i386 hardware for MacRuby apps, for several
reasons (codebase not well tested, runtime / exception handling differences,
floating point precision loss, etc.). The i386-related code could eventually be
removed from MacRuby after 0.10.
This is not an irrevocable decision, though. If people complain we will revert
the change. But I want to give it a try.
Laurent
