pypy fails to build without gcc-4.0 (cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-arch" )

[jwm.columbia@…]

When trying to build pypy on a system where it has not previously been installed (i.e. using python27, or python27-apple), the build process fails.

It appears the problem is caused by the CC flag "-arch x86_64", which I believe is specific to GCC on Darwin, and is not present in the compiler used (/opt/local/bin/gcc-mp-4.5).

Output of the offending build step is below. main.log is attached.

Thanks for your help!

Thanks for the very quick fix. Unfortunately, the build process now returns a new error on my system. It appears the '-m64' flag somehow gets parsed as '- m 6 4'.

I'm not sure whether this should be considered the same or a different issue, so I will paste the error log here to start with:

When is a tuple not a tuple? When it's a string because you forgot the trailing comma. r83153

Those can indeed be hard to catch. Build works for me now -- many thanks!
