Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] php5 as universal binary (Mac OS X)
From: antony@zend.com (Antony Dovgal)

Intel Mac is little-endian, PPC Mac is big-endian.
Endiannes is detected during configure run, that's why the binary works fine on Intel Mac, but not on PPC.

To make it work on both you either need to build separate binaries on PPC and Intel, and 
then merge them (IIRC that was possible), or you need to patch PHP sources.
In my case patching PHP sources was the easiest solution, so I replaced
WORDS_BIGENDIAN macro (defined by configure) with __BIG_ENDIAN__ (defined by Mac GCC in compile time).

If anyone have any suggestions on how to improve universal binary support so that 
it would not require patching, I'd gladly listen to them.
