#12416: Mercurial assumes that any system with XCode *installed* will use XCode 
to
*build* Mercurial

 This is an except from upstream's {{{setup.py}}}:
 {{{
 if sys.platform == 'darwin' and os.path.exists('/usr/bin/xcodebuild'):
     # XCode 4.0 dropped support for ppc architecture, which is hardcoded
 in
     # distutils.sysconfig
     version = runcmd(['/usr/bin/xcodebuild', '-version'],
 {})[0].splitlines()[0]
     # Also parse only first digit, because 3.2.1 can't be parsed nicely
     if (version.startswith('Xcode') and
         StrictVersion(version.split()[1]) >= StrictVersion('4.0')):
         os.environ['ARCHFLAGS'] = '-arch i386 -arch x86_64'
 }}}

 The `ARCHFLAGS` are passed to `gcc` during the setup of Mercurial.  This
 obviously breaks on a system with XCode installed, but where the "gcc"
 found in the `PATH` isn't XCode's gcc.

 In later upstream releases, the last line is changed to
 {{{
 os.environ['ARCHFLAGS'] = '-arch i386 -arch x86_64'
 }}}

 So I propose to backport this change.
