Or we may need to have two different versions -- one for OSX 10.5 and
later, and one for 10.4.  It may be possible to continue to support 10.4
in GUB with a separate target.

But 10.4 is a pretty old OS (released 7 years ago, replaced 4.5 years
ago).  There are enough changes in how things are handled in OSX that I
doubt it will be infinitely sustainable.
