 When I look at the [https://gitweb.torproject.org/builders/tor-browser-
 bundle.git/tree/refs/heads/master:/gitian/descriptors/mac OSX build
 scripts] I see we're building [https://gitweb.torproject.org/builders/tor-
 browser-bundle.git/blob/refs/heads/master:/gitian/descriptors/mac/gitian-
 firefox.yml#l5 Firefox] with x86_64 architecture, while
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/builders/tor-browser-
 bundle.git/blob/refs/heads/master:/gitian/descriptors/mac/gitian-
 tor.yml#l5 everything] [https://gitweb.torproject.org/builders/tor-
 browser-bundle.git/blob/refs/heads/master:/gitian/descriptors/mac/gitian-
 pluggable-transports.yml#l5 else], [https://gitweb.torproject.org/builders
 /tor-browser-bundle.git/blob/refs/heads/master:/gitian/descriptors/mac
 /gitian-bundle.yml#l5 including the bundle]
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/builders/tor-browser-
 bundle.git/blob/refs/heads/master:/gitian/descriptors/mac/gitian-
 utils.yml#l5 is i386].

 All the macs (<5-6yrs old) are 64bit. Older macs are awefuly out-dated,
 and even if we're trying to support them, [it seems to me that] we're
 doing it wrong. I believe we should either upgrade all the gitian build
 scripts to x86_64 OR support both architectures properly.
