[M3devel] m3cc build fails on older MacOS X

[Jay]

I have a machine running 10.3 now.

gcc-4.3.2 (the current release) won't (toplevel) configure on MacOSX 10.3 apparently because its assembler doesn't support ".machine".
Current "cctools" won't compile on 10.3 without patches or other updates, due to mucking with ppc64 stuff, though that is easy to fix.

A simple wrapper around as for use on 10.3 that strips the .machine directive is probably reasonable, or a patch to gcc to just not emit it for Darwin, except maybe for non-ppc, or subject to a switch.

Other than support for more architectures, I never found any of the updates beyond 10.2 very interesting.
Though current Firefox and Safari also won't run on 10.3.

IF I get this working, maybe I'll bring 10.2 back up also..

I don't know what these Darwin versions are.
Mac OSX 10.0? 10.1? 10.2? 10.3? 10.4? 10.5?
I used to run 10.2 and could perhaps bring it back (though I'd hate to lose my PPC_LINUX install.. :( )

Hopefully that's enough context though.

The rest is a cascade.
What happens if you remove all my m3makefile wierdness (which works everywhere else..) and just configure and make?

Can I ssh into this?
