> All my own libraries are universal binaries (both 32 and 64 bit, Intel), but the 4.2 app and SDK seems to be 64-bit only. I would have expected it to be a universal binary as well, and that the oxt build would produce a universal binary oxt. But it seems not.

It turns out that a i386 build is the default in the SDK, even in the 64-bit SDK distro. But overriding the default is easy:

make oxt GCC_ARCH_OPTION=

This produces a 64 bit dylib in the oxt:

$ file build/oxt/voikko.dylib 
build/oxt/voikko.dylib: Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library x86_64

Unfortunately, it still doesn’t work. The options pane is just blank.
