yay!

64-bit here means the CPU architecture. On a modern Mac, you will get a 
64-bit Pd by default when you type "make".

But you're asking about single VS double precision, which is not related 
to the CPU architecture at all. In fact, you can have a single precision 
64-bit Pd and a double precision 32-bit Pd. To stress it again: double 
precision Pd != 64-bit Pd.

Both are possible!

a) ./configure CPPFLAGS="-DPD_FLOATSIZE=64"

(for all subsequent calls to "make")

b) make CPPFLAGS="-DPD_FLOATSIZE=64"

(only for this call to "make")


Looks like these instructions are still missing in the INSTALL.txt...
