[Valgrind-users] configure reporting incorrect primary build arch

2012-07-12 Thread Jacob Goldstein
I am attempting to build Valgrind locally and notice that the output from 
running configure is:

  Maximum build arch: amd64
  Primary build arch: amd64
  Secondary build arch: x86
  Build OS: darwin
  Primary build target: AMD64_DARWIN
  Secondary build target: X86_DARWIN
  Platform variant: vanilla
  Primary -DVGPV string: -DVGPV_amd64_darwin_vanilla=1
  Default supp files: exp-sgcheck.supp xfree-3.supp xfree-4.supp 
darwin10-drd.supp darwin11.supp

I'm running on a MacBook Pro with an Intel i7 CPU (running OS X 10.7.4), so I'm 
not sure why the primary build arch is amd64.

Does anyone know why I'm seeing this?

amd64 indicates it is the intel architecture in 64 bits.

If I am not wrong, it is amd that defined the extension of the x86 to
64 bits, and so that is one (the?) reason to call it amd64.

See also http://www.valgrind.org/info/platforms.html

So, no problem.

Total red herring.  amd64 is merely the name used to denote 64 bit x86.
Works fine on Intels too.
