Looks like the same issue you reported against dirac in #27977. Sounds like something fundamentally strange on your system, but I don't know what. You are running 10.6? On what computer with what processor?

Replying to ryandesign@…:

It might. I seem to encounter more problems than usual... I'm using Macbook pro 2.66GHz i7 processor, Mac OS X 10.6.6. Do you have any suggestion what should I try?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

In both tickets, the library whose architecture is being complained about was created by "ar". Perhaps your "ar" program was somehow replaced by an older version that is not compatible with x86_64 binaries. Try reinstalling the latest Xcode (for Snow Leopard, 3.2.6 is fine).

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

Please show the output of ls -l /usr/bin/ar /usr/bin/ranlib /usr/bin/libtool. On my system with Xcode 3.2.6 I get:

-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   70464 24 Oct  2010 /usr/bin/ar
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  357808 24 Oct  2010 /usr/bin/libtool

This seems to be an issue with a particular computer setup.
