That's really strange. On my PPC OS X 10.4.8 machine the build commands look quite different:

cc -DJOHN_SYSTEMWIDE=1 -DJOHN_SYSTEMWIDE_EXEC=\"/opt/local/share/john\" -DJOHN_SYSTEMWIDE_HOME=\"/opt/local/share/john\" -c -traditional-cpp -O2 path.c

Note the cc instead of gcc and also there is only one \ instead of
\ . Also I have the traditional-cpp flag that you don't have. Do you have any special setup ? Can another intel user confirm this ?
