Okay, actually, when I try that on my 10.5 machine, arch does allow
me
to specify the architecture under which to run another command.
Interesting. However, the man page on Leopard still doesn't mention
anything about this capability, although if you give it just the
"right"
invalid syntax (or "arch -h"), the usage will give you limited
information on this feature. Is this documented anywhere?
It is in the arch man page. Seems likely that you did an upgrade
install
and still have the 10.4 manpage around. The leopard manpages are
compressed so the files do not overwrite the older ones at install
time.
So, what you're telling me is that, in addition to of all the various
architecture/OS/Xcode version combinations I have to worry about (PPC
Tiger Intel Tiger, Intel Leopard with Xcode 2.5 and 3.0), there's now
a difference between my Leopard machine which was upgraded from Tiger
and a brand-new machine with Leopard installed? How am I possibly
supposed to know this? And what other "surprise" differences don't I
know about? How can I get my machine into a "full" Leopard state,
short of wiping the hard drive and installing the OS again?
Or at least, what do I have to do to see the man pages for the
utilities I'm actually running?

Actually, doing "man arch" on Leopard give me this. Are you sure you
man path does not contains some old man page.
In fact, I'm not sure that man search in the Developer directory by
default. I think I have changed it the first time it returns me "no
man" (by adding an xcode entry /etc/manpaths.d/).
Exactly what entry do I need to add, and where?
Thanks,
Dan
