Please put it in, it is needed if you compile on a PPC machine. 

See http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2005/tn2137.html

extract:
Note: On an Intel-based Macintosh system the libraries are already
universal, and support the Intel and PowerPC architectures, and you may
specify only the -arch i386 -arch ppc options for CFLAGS; on a
PowerPC-based Macintosh, you must use the MacOSX10.4u SDK.

If you do not put it in you cannot build UBs on PPC.
