I'm very curious about this also. I'm building a driver which
I'd like to be universal. The problem I'm running into is that
I need to pass specific flags for x86 to disable use of
the SIMD registers by gcc (-mno-mmx -mno-sse -mno-sse2).
Normally, you'd just do 'gcc -arch ppc -arch i386 foo.c',
but the ppc stage of the compile pukes when I include the
x86 SIMD exclusion flags.
