It appears to be dying in the machine type defs.

Cool, then the fix should be easy.  RC_ARCHS values should be lower case, so "ppc" would get further.

If you can attach the log corresponding to the original problem (when trying to build universal), I can help diagnose the initial issue as well... (which you might run into again after correcting RC_ARCHS).

Here you go, I had no luck building it as a universal binary, so I dropped back to using just PPC.

Hi Philip,

I'm curious about the "cc: Invalid arch name : PPC", did you modify your plist at all (specifically, RC_ARCHS)?  It would be very helpful if you could attach the full build log, then we could answer questions like the one above on our own.

Thanks,

Kevin

Uh-oh, the C compiler 'cc' doesn't seem to be working.

You need to find a working C compiler.
Either (purchase and) install the C compiler supplied by your OS vendor,
or for a free C compiler try http://gcc.gnu.org/
I cannot continue any further, aborting.
make[1]: *** [/private/var/tmp/perl/perl-35.obj/perl/configure-stamp] Error 1
make: *** [installperl] Error 2

Is there something special that one needs to set or do to get a working c compiler?
