Comment:

 This fix is not robust, and is too specific to 10.6

 The same issue happens on other systems, such as the parallel of darwin9
 building for ppc on an Intel system, which I am doing right now.

 In fact, the issue will likely crop up any time the requested build does
 not match the output of config.guess.

 A more robust fix might be to add the build parameter to all builds, or at
 least all builds where the requested build does not match config.guess.
 Have to think about how that would exactly work with this port, that can
 build universal but without using the muniversal portgroup.
