You can ignore the previous email sent by me. It would appear that I 
have been hacked and the stupid side of my was secretly sending emails.

Forgive my ignorance, but after digging into the configuration script I 
found one thing that I did not get out of reading the --help. Maybe this 
will help others out there.

It would seem that by default the configuration script will not detect 
and set the -arch depending on your processor. Only if the 
--enable-proc-opt is enabled will it detect and set processor specific 
compilation (-arch). Which is what Isaac was trying to get across.
