Clicking on the frescobaldi executable	in the application results in "- 
bash: /Users/ssanders/Desktop/frescobaldi.app/Contents/MacOS/ 
frescobaldi: Bad CPU type in executable
logout"

My iMac (running OS X 10.5.8) is an Intel Core Duo. Is it possible  
that there is a 32-/64- bit problem? I have read that 10.5 is capable  
of running 64-bit applications but only if they are compiled for 10.5.
