Support multiple ARCHs on Mac OS X (fat binaries)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. set 'xcode_settings': {'ARCHS': ['x86_64', 'i386']}
2. compile

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expect: generation of a fat binary with compilation products for both i386 and 
x86_64

What I see instead: Warning: Ignoring not yet implemented key "ARCHS".

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

r1214 on Mac OS X 10.6.8

Please provide any additional information below.

I made the following naive hack to the gyp (rev1214) included in nodejs to see 
what the results would be.

Made changes to gyp/xcode_emulation.py and common.gypi to see if I could 
generate a fat binary produced this error:

  gcc-4.2: -E, -S, -save-temps and -M options are not allowed with multiple -arch flags

These flags can be turned off in a configure generated with Automake by addin 
'--disable-dependency-tracking' to the ./configure invocation.

Don't know how to do this with gyp.
