Couldn't let this rest though...

It seems I made a really stupid mistake by installing an I386_DARWIN
archive, as I have a 64 bit processor. AMD64_DARWIN should work
much better, and I've even found one from March 2011.

After replacing the configuration files with those from the current code
base and adapting some basic system tool definitions like gcc and libtool
I have now successfully compiled m3core. This looks good so far.
It would have taken me much longer without your hint.

But now I need some sleep,

Olaf
