Our installer application is written in RB. It turns out that it needs to
install slightly different things depending on whether it is installing on an
Intel-architecture or PPC-architecture Mac. 

The installer application runs fine under Rosetta, so for us there's no urgency
at all about universal-binary-target version of RB.

What would people suggest as the least kludgey, most respectable, most robust
way for a PPC application to determine whether it is running on a PPC platform,
or on an Intel platform (using Rosetta)? 

(It would actually be acceptable for the installer to ask the _user_ via a
dialog box to indicate the platform architecture...  or to provide separate
installers named "Install on Intel-Core Mac" and "Install on G5 Mac..." so
that's the fallback. But I'd like to detect the architecture automatically if
possible).
