...this may be a naive question, but since there are both ppc and x86 versions of fink, is it possible to create a universal binary of a library, given that there are similar versions for both architectures? If so, anyone have pointers on making it super-easy?
There's no good, consistent way to make universal binaries for configure/make projects. Sometimes you can use CFLAGS="-arch ppc - arch i386", but that will fail if configure should give different results on each platform (eg: if it tests for endianness). Other times you can compile once per arch, but this only works if the configure script properly supports cross-compilation, which is often not the case.
