[PD] compiling externals on snow leopard

Portaudio makes now, 64bit pd.  I can also make the 32bit version using
CFLAGS and LDFLAGS, but the --enable-universal doesn't work because of the
following error:

gcc-4.2: -E, -S, -save-temps and -M options are not allowed with multiple
-arch flags
make[2]: *** [libportaudio_la-pa_allocation.lo] Error 1

I was thinking, what happens when you have a universal binary pd and you mix
external types, like some are 32bit and some are 64bit?  Maybe a universal
binary pd isn't so good..

I'll try testing out the 64bit pd-gui-rewrite for a while, see if anything
strange happens.
