Hi Mike,
                    I've done the following:

Specify the environment variables:

export CFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch x86_64"
export CXXFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch x86_64"
export LDFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch x86_64"


Configure and build :

./configure
make

This results in the following error for libpng-1.2.31

/bin/sh ./libtool --tag=CC   --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.  - 
DPNG_CONFIGURE_LIBPNG    -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -MT libpng12_la- 
png.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/libpng12_la-png.Tpo -c -o libpng12_la-png.lo  
`test -f 'png.c' || echo './'`png.c
libtool: compile:  gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -DPNG_CONFIGURE_LIBPNG - 
arch i386 -arch x86_64 -MT libpng12_la-png.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/ 
libpng12_la-png.Tpo -c png.c  -fno-common -DPIC -o .libs/libpng12_la- 
png.o
gcc-4.0: -E, -S, -save-temps and -M options are not allowed with  
multiple -arch flags
make[1]: *** [libpng12_la-png.lo] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2


How can I disable -save-temps and -M options?

The ./configure --help doesnt give much or document this.

elvis-dowsons-macbook-pro:libpng-1.2.31 elvis$ ./configure --help
`configure' configures libpng 1.2.31 to adapt to many kinds of systems.

Usage: ./configure [OPTION]... [VAR=VALUE]...

To assign environment variables (e.g., CC, CFLAGS...), specify them as
VAR=VALUE.  See below for descriptions of some of the useful variables.

Defaults for the options are specified in brackets.

Configuration:
   -h, --help              display this help and exit
       --help=short        display options specific to this package
       --help=recursive    display the short help of all the included  
packages
   -V, --version           display version information and exit
   -q, --quiet, --silent   do not print `checking...' messages
       --cache-file=FILE   cache test results in FILE [disabled]
   -C, --config-cache      alias for `--cache-file=config.cache'
   -n, --no-create         do not create output files
       --srcdir=DIR        find the sources in DIR [configure dir or  
`..']

Installation directories:
   --prefix=PREFIX         install architecture-independent files in  
PREFIX
                           [/usr/local]
   --exec-prefix=EPREFIX   install architecture-dependent files in  
EPREFIX
                           [PREFIX]

By default, `make install' will install all the files in
`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/lib' etc.  You can specify
an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' using `--prefix',
for instance `--prefix=$HOME'.

For better control, use the options below.

Fine tuning of the installation directories:
   --bindir=DIR            user executables [EPREFIX/bin]
   --sbindir=DIR           system admin executables [EPREFIX/sbin]
   --libexecdir=DIR        program executables [EPREFIX/libexec]
   --sysconfdir=DIR        read-only single-machine data [PREFIX/etc]
   --sharedstatedir=DIR    modifiable architecture-independent data  
[PREFIX/com]
   --localstatedir=DIR     modifiable single-machine data [PREFIX/var]
   --libdir=DIR            object code libraries [EPREFIX/lib]
   --includedir=DIR        C header files [PREFIX/include]
   --oldincludedir=DIR     C header files for non-gcc [/usr/include]
   --datarootdir=DIR       read-only arch.-independent data root  
[PREFIX/share]
   --datadir=DIR           read-only architecture-independent data  
[DATAROOTDIR]
   --infodir=DIR           info documentation [DATAROOTDIR/info]
   --localedir=DIR         locale-dependent data [DATAROOTDIR/locale]
   --mandir=DIR            man documentation [DATAROOTDIR/man]
   --docdir=DIR            documentation root [DATAROOTDIR/doc/libpng]
   --htmldir=DIR           html documentation [DOCDIR]
   --dvidir=DIR            dvi documentation [DOCDIR]
   --pdfdir=DIR            pdf documentation [DOCDIR]
   --psdir=DIR             ps documentation [DOCDIR]

Program names:
   --program-prefix=PREFIX            prepend PREFIX to installed  
program names
   --program-suffix=SUFFIX            append SUFFIX to installed  
program names
   --program-transform-name=PROGRAM   run sed PROGRAM on installed  
program names

System types:
   --build=BUILD     configure for building on BUILD [guessed]
   --host=HOST       cross-compile to build programs to run on HOST  
[BUILD]

Optional Features:
   --disable-option-checking  ignore unrecognized --enable/--with  
options
   --disable-FEATURE       do not include FEATURE (same as --enable- 
FEATURE=no)
   --enable-FEATURE[=ARG]  include FEATURE [ARG=yes]
   --enable-maintainer-mode  enable make rules and dependencies not  
useful
			  (and sometimes confusing) to the casual installer
   --disable-dependency-tracking  speeds up one-time build
   --enable-dependency-tracking   do not reject slow dependency  
extractors
   --enable-shared[=PKGS]  build shared libraries [default=yes]
   --enable-static[=PKGS]  build static libraries [default=yes]
   --enable-fast-install[=PKGS]
                           optimize for fast installation [default=yes]
   --disable-libtool-lock  avoid locking (might break parallel builds)

Optional Packages:
   --with-PACKAGE[=ARG]    use PACKAGE [ARG=yes]
   --without-PACKAGE       do not use PACKAGE (same as --with- 
PACKAGE=no)
   --with-gnu-ld           assume the C compiler uses GNU ld  
[default=no]
   --with-pic              try to use only PIC/non-PIC objects  
[default=use
                           both]
   --with-pkgconfigdir     Use the specified pkgconfig dir (default is
                           libdir/pkgconfig)
   --with-binconfigs       Generate shell libpng-config scripts as  
well as
                           pkg-config data [default=yes]
   --with-libpng-compat    Generate the obsolete libpng.so library
                           [default=yes]

Some influential environment variables:
   CC          C compiler command
   CFLAGS      C compiler flags
   LDFLAGS     linker flags, e.g. -L<lib dir> if you have libraries in a
               nonstandard directory <lib dir>
   LIBS        libraries to pass to the linker, e.g. -l<library>
   CPPFLAGS    C/C++/Objective C preprocessor flags, e.g. -I<include  
dir> if
               you have headers in a nonstandard directory <include dir>
   CPP         C preprocessor

Use these variables to override the choices made by `configure' or to  
help
it to find libraries and programs with nonstandard names/locations.


Best regards,

Elvis Dowson
