Dear Mac Porters,

I have been working on the universal build, and one thing I found was that MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET needed to be exported for a successful build. As I have been doing more research I found that the 'need' for this environment variable is perhaps new to 10.5 Leopard, but I think it has value for compiling on earlier versions as well. So I suggest that we add this to the variables exported when we source the environment for all builds.

One reference for this variable is on this page - 
http://developer.apple.com/releasenotes/Darwin/SymbolVariantsRelNotes/index.html

Another reference - http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2002/tn2064.html

I think this could be discussed at the port meeting and if others agree an issue created for a cws.

Regards,

Mike
