David,
While you are adding this to fink, would it be possible
to use some MacOS X system call to detect the presence of
64-bit support on the processor? I have thought it would
be handy to have such a flag as available for checking
in info scripts for such cases as a gcc42-64-bit package
That's already there (added last summer): a virtual package called
64bit-cpu which you may add to Depends or BuildDepends where
appropriate.

Heh, nevermind, found the 64bit-cpu package... as mentioned in other

I solicit your comments on the proposals below to (1) change the

Proposal #1 is that we use these storage locations for our 64bit
libraries, and make that fink policy. (There are only two packages
which have adopted the old scheme -- gmp-64bit and openmcl-64bit --

I assume that any 64bit package will only install the libs.

The issue is the correct storage
A quick followup thought: if we add --libdir='${prefix}/%lib' to the %
c defaults, then we should introduce a NoSetLibdir command to disable
that when necessary.
