The Gnulib module 'sigsegv' is another module which supports Mac OS X 10.5
nicely but not Mac OS X 10.4.
More generally, how do you — in MacPorts — handle the case of a functionality
that is available in Mac OS X versions >= V, but not in versions < V? (I'm
asking you because normal macOS users typically build binaries just for their
particular OS version.)
Do you have a mechanism for building separate binaries for ≥ V and < V?
Do you attempt to build the code for ≥ V, even though it won't work for < V?
Do you use a replacement for the versions < V, and a version test at runtime
(and, if so, how do you code this version test)?
Do you have a timeline when you will drop support for Mac OS X 10.4?
Bruno
