[New-bugs-announce] [issue26487] Machine value for fat PowerPC build

[hanz]

New submission from hanz:

Building on Mac OS X 10.5.8 (Power Mac G5) for ppc and ppc64 fails with

  File "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_lang_python27/python27/work/Python-2.7.11/Lib/_osx_support.py", line 485, in get_platform_osx
    "Don't know machine value for archs=%r" % (archs,))
ValueError: Don't know machine value for archs=('ppc', 'ppc64')
generate-posix-vars failed
make: *** [pybuilddir.txt] Error 1


If I apply the attached patch, it builds and works fine.
Would it be possible to include these changes in Python?
