Bug #23699	Building universal binary version of MySQL only partially works

Status:	Closed	Impact on me:	None
Category:	MySQL Server	Severity:	S3 (Non-critical)
Version:	5.0.26	OS:	MacOS (MacOS X 10.4.8)
Assigned to:		CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
Compiling for 4 architectures on one go on MacOS X leads to universal ppc/i386 32/64bit libraries but the binaries of the tools are staying in 32 bit single architecture.

How to repeat:
export PATH="/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin" 
export LDFLAGS="-lz -liconv" 
export CFLAGS="-arch ppc -arch ppc64 -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -g -Os -Wl,-syslibroot,/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk" 
export CPPFLAGS="" 

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --disable-dependency-tracking --enable-thread-safe-client --enable-local-infile --enable-largefile --with-extra-charsets=complex --with-innodb --with-berkeley-db --with-big-tables --with-unix-socket-path=/tmp/mysql.sock --with-ndb-shm --with-ndb-port --with-ndb-port-base --with-comment --with-gnu-ld --disable-shared 

Suggested fix:
fix the makefile/configure part which deals with the tools building mysql, mysqld and the like to include CFLAGS or LDFLAGS from the main configure line.

libmysqlclient was built fine this way on power pc machine as well as on a intel machine.

Thank you for the report.

Please try using current 5.0.27 version accessible from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.0.html

this is fixed in 5.0.27 if the CXXFLAGS are also properly set as some of the tools use C++.
