[Python-Dev] 2.5 post-alpha1 broken on mac-intel machines

Back from vacation, just did an svn up and make, and...:

No idea where that deuced "architecture ppc" comes from, since this 
Mac (a Macbook Pro) has an intel CPU -- I assume some configuration 
file erroneously posits that Macs "must" have PPC processors (which 
has been false for many months and was not posited in alpha-1, which 
compiled fine here). Too tired to look more into this (having just 
driven back from a week's vacation in the Grand Canyon), but I will 
next week if I have to...:-(
