Build mysteriously excludes G3s

I got a call the other day (does anyone still use the telephone?) from a customer who can't run my application. It turns out they have a G3 running Tiger. I investigated and found that the latest release of my application's not-so-universal fat binary only contained code for i386 and ppc7500 (i.e. G4/G5).

Here's my situation:

I have a project, currently being built using Xcode 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 (although this problem is older than that). The project has 11 targets and produces 2 Cocoa applications, 3 Foundation tools, 1 C tool, 1 Contextual menu plug-in, and 1 Spotlight importer.

It's configured to produce 32-bit (only) universal binaries. The problem is that one Cocoa application (the main client application) produces a i386+ppc7400 binary (according to 'lipo -info'). _All_ of the other targets produce i386+ppc binaries. There's nothing at the target level of the build (that I could find) that would cause that one Cocoa app to compile differently than the others. In fact, I tend to migrate many of the default target settings to project level just to make sure everything builds the same. They all have the same compiler, optimization, target SDK, and deployment settings.

Looking at the build transcript, all of the compile and link commands are passed "-arch ppc".

Does anyone know what would possibly cause one, and only one, application to generate ppc7400 code while every other target in the project produces ppc code?
