I have now reinstalled LaTeX using the i-Installer and checking in  
the terminal I now have 2 architectures. I get

Thomas-Rikes-Computer:~ trike$ file /usr/local/teTeX/lib/libkpathsea.a
/usr/local/teTeX/lib/libkpathsea.a: Mach-O universal binary with 2  
architectures
/usr/local/teTeX/lib/libkpathsea.a (for architecture ppc):       
current ar archive
/usr/local/teTeX/lib/libkpathsea.a (for architecture i386):      
current ar archive random library

However, there is still a problem. The libkpathsea.a is out of date.  
The configuration log now says

configure:2942: checking for kpse_set_progname in -lkpathsea
configure:2972: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -I/usr/local/teTeX/include/ -L/ 
usr/local/teTeX/lib conftest.c -lkpathsea  -lgd -lpng -lz -lm  >&5
/usr/bin/ld: table of contents for archive: /usr/local/teTeX/lib/ 
libkpathsea.a is out of date; rerun ranlib(1) (can't load from it)
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure:2978: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h.  */

I am not giving up yet. Thanks for all the hints. I'm learning a lot  
in the process.  Tom Rike
