What version of OS X is on your macbook?  On my intel mini, running
10.4.11, I am unable to run any binaries compiled under 10.5.  I've
tried them from 3 different contributors, and each time I get "Bus
Error".
Since David only very recently acquired his mac, I'm assuming the
universal binaries are compiled under 10.5.
