Enjoy!
Emacs supports both PowerPC and Intel-based Macintoshes. However,
due to the unexec process that Emacs uses to dump core, it is not
possible at this time to generate a universal binary that supports both
architectures. In addition, Rosetta doesn't appear to work correctly
with PowerPC builds of Emacs; you will have to recompile for Intel.
Therefore, builds of Emacs are architecture specific.
