Jack,
   Is this with Xcode 2.5? I'm surprised I didn't hear about this
problem before although I do see...

Historical Footnote: Compiling 64-Bit Command-Line Code for Mac OS X v10.4

Mac OS X v10.4 supports some 64-bit executables. However, Mac OS X v10.4 does 
not include a full 64-bit stack; Mac OS X v10.4 contains only libSystem and the 
Accelerate framework in 64-bit versions. In addition, Mac OS X 10.4 includes 
neither the Objective-C runtime nor a 64-bit Objective-C-capable version of 
dyld. Because of these differences, if you try to execute a 64-bit executable 
in 10.4 that depends on these 10.5-specific features, it would crash.

To prevent new 64-bit executables from running as 64-bit on version 10.4, Apple 
changed the CPU subtype for 64-bit executables that depend on high-level 
frameworks.

If you need to compile an executable as 64-bit for Mac OS X v10.4, you must 
select the 10.4 deployment target when building 64-bit executables and separate 
your code into a 32-bit front-end (GUI) portion and a 64-bit back-end 
(processing) portion.

Did the any of the previous gcc4x packages build the x86_64 multilib under 10.4?
