Description

I worked a little with the memtester source files, and had a quick conversation with the developer on how to possibly build memtester 4.1.2 as universal. Once I got it to built locally, I tested it on a PPC machine and has success there as well.

There were two files that needed altering in the source:

conf-cc
conf-ld

After discussion on the dev mailing list, I was shown (by Ryan) how to properly update a "configure no" style Portfile to be universal.

Ryan was kind enough to create the patch file for me, which I applied to my local repo of ports, uninstalled the non universal version and ran:

cd ~/macports
portindex
sudo port install memtester +universal
file `which memtester`

-> /opt/local/bin/memtester: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64

I then ran a quick test:

memtester 4096 1

I have snipped the rest of the output, as it appears to work as advertised. Patch file is attached.
