Hello,
The hotspot native libraries on macosx are currently being packaged as
"universal binaries" (while all other libraries and executables are
not). There seems to be no point in doing so since we only build for one
architecture anyway. I believe this is just something that was never
cleaned up a long time ago and has just been around since. In the new
hotspot build, we duplicated the behavior with the intention of removing
it later. That time has now come.
I have verified that a hotspot job for macosx still works.
