 I have a new Mac Pro with Intel Xeon processors running Leopard 10.5.5 and
 Xcode 3.1.1.  When I try to compile gcc43, my computer locks up
 completely, apparently while trying to run ranlib to create the x86-64
 version of libgfortran.a.  I am sorry that I can not provide the exact
 state, but since the machine locks I can not save any state information.
 I can provide two other pieces of data.  First, fink successfully builds
 the x86-64 version of libgfortran.a.  Second, when I add the flag
 --disable-multilib to the configure.args line in the macports Portfile,
 gcc43 builds successfully.  Has anyone else encountered a problem like
 this???
 Thanks,
 James
