If you look in main.log at the environment that's being set when calling
configure you should be able to see whether base is doing anything wrong
there.

It looks more like this configure check is picking up -arch ppc from
somewhere it shouldn't. Maybe CFLAGS, but only if it's also stripping
out duplicate flags like -Os that would be there if it was using e.g.
$F90FLAGS -v $CFLAGS. The -m32 as also seen in the previous line is part
of the correct fortran flags.
