[quake3] Mac Universal Binaries

[Jorge Peña]

No problem, so it builds a UB right? With intel and ppc binaries in it? For
the dependencies, did you have Intel and PPC versions? Or did you just build
them and it worked? I'm pretty curious, I had the feeling I just had to get
the Intel versions of the dependencies and things would work, I'll try that
next time I get a chance to use my friend's Mac. You are building with
dependencies curl, ogg, and vorbis, right?

Anyways, I'll keep at it, kind of difficult when I don't have a Mac. I'm
pretty sure just having Intel versions of the dependencies will work.
Someone was nice enough to build them for me (Some random guy in #mac).
Hopefully it works, I'm pretty sure it will because like I said before I had
dependencies it would build perfectly, and now that I have them it complains
about the library's architecture type, so hopefully this will solve it.
Thanks for at least responding, anyways.
