I'm pretty sure you have to install the developer tools in order to get the gcc compiler installed. So while you don't need XCode to compile, you do need the developer tools, which is almost synonymous with XCode.
Of course I have the developer tools installed - I wouldn't even be able to attempt a compile without them. XCode is an IDE - it provides project management and a nice GUI for lower level tools, however, it is squarely targeted at development of OS X applications that are set up as XCode projects, which does not include PHP. Bear in mind that almost none of the thousands of open source projects available via sources like fink have anything to do with XCode - they're all designed for a standard unix-style build system using the tools I mentioned.
Doesn't 10.4 ship with gcc 4? I know I read about some bugs and problem with gcc 4, some specifically related to PPC chips. Do you know if you are compiling using 3.3 or 4.0?
I'm using the standard system gcc 4.0.0, but this is a problem with the parameters (defined in the PHP configure script) passed to ld, so strictly speaking this is a linking rather than a compiling problem (i.e. the problem occurs after gcc has finished successfully). It seems that the OS X ld has different options to the GNU or BSD implementations, so I guess I'm really after someone that knows ld well enough.
