[MIT-Scheme-devel] Building on OSX

[Robert Love]

I tried searching thru the development archives before I posted.  Has 
anybody given any attention to building MIT Scheme for MacOSX?  All I 
found was X86 versions on the web site.

When I try to build it myself I get this error from the configure
step:

checking for waitpid... yes
checking build system type... powerpc-apple-darwin7.3.0
checking host system type... powerpc-apple-macos
checking for X... no
checking for long file names... yes
checking for unistd.h... (cached) yes
checking for restartable system calls... yes
updating cache .././config.cache

configuring in compiler
running /bin/sh ./configure  --host=powerpc-apple-macos 
--cache-file=.././config.cache --srcdir=.
Unable to determine machine type.
configure: error: ./configure failed for compiler

which seems strange because it is telling me what my system is.
