I'll give you an account on my machine on monday... So we(=you :) might
be able to track down this problem.

I hope that I'll be able to build _and_ test the ppc binaries on
Patrick's computer in the future.

If that's a problem with misconfiguration/"miscompilation", then I'm
the one to be accused :P

The binary has most probably been cross-compiled on mac intel (some
versions were compiled natively, don't remember which one and when),
but it has been compiled the same way as the one for intel, only with
   CFLAGS="-arch ppc" LDFLAGS="-arch ppc" CXXFLAGS="-arch ppc" ./build.sh
(thanks to Arthur) and with no special settings or other configuration options.

XeTeX, metapost and LuaTeX have been compiled in the same way, but
apparently they work?

Jonathan Kew has said that I might want to select a lower version of
something (maybe gcc) when cross-compiling for ppc. Could that be part
of the problem?

The problem is that I only build the ppc binaries and never have a
chance to test them.

Like Martin said already: you get this kind of magic when the large file
support in the binary is misconfigured/miscompiled. Not a macro problem
at all.

Best wishes,

This is typical for a mixup with LFS. Can you try a newer alpha and
make sure that --disable-largefile is active?

Hello again,


>> I've just downloaded a minimal for mac os x/power-pc and experience
>> the following problem:

I've thought that the "brokenness" of the binary in the minimals is only
related to image inclusion, but it seems as if this touches more ares.

I have no problems in generating new binaries myself.
