git-core ignores build_arch=i386 on snow leopard

[jkebinger@…]

git-core ignores the build_arch setting for me on snow leopard. This caused numerous build failures when linking against other libraries that were compiled 32-bit, like expat, openssl, and zlib. Only by reinstalling all of those ports with +universal was I able to install git-core. Running file on the git binary confirms this:
