"Bad CPU type" when building on G4

Hello, all ...

I'm working on an application that runs on Intel / PPC Macs (OSX) as well as Windows. When I build this app on my MacBook (Core2 Duo) or G5 (2.3ghz 970MP at work, dual 2.7ghz at home), the app runs. However, when I try to build and run it on a G4, it builds, but does not run. The error returned is "Bad CPU type for executable." The issue seems to be 64-bit vs. 32-bit.

I've googled around and found references to --disable-multilib, but these references were always with respect to bootstrapping gcc. I'm not trying to build a new gcc, I just want to use the one that comes with OSX (Apple's gcc4.0.1). Will just passing "-m32" in the gcc parameters fix this? I'm trying this now, but this app takes hours to build on a G4 (1.33ghz 12" PowerBook), and I figure I might get an answer here before it's finished :-)

Regards,

John
