--enable-altivec is really only for ppc linux to enable the altivec ABI by default which is done for PPC Darwin by default already.

Actually, in the course of my recent AltiVec struggles, I failed to discover any purpose whatsoever for the '--enable-altivec' config switch -- perhaps Aldy can enlighten us.

Doing a simple search using google, I found when this was added:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2001-12/msg02123.html

It is exactly does what I said it does is to change the ABI by default.

Thanks,
