universal ld wrapper script
On OS X ld can't handle multiple architectures, this wrapper script
will parse the command line for multiple -arch statements and
compile each architecture seperately and glue them together with
lipo.

+This script provides an extended ld syntax that supports universal binaries

+It supports an extended -arch [i386|ppc] option.
+if there are two or more architectures it will run ld for each 
+architecture (writing to a tempfile) and then glue the pieces together
+with lipo.
