 Well, the incapability of 10.4's linker / loader to handle common symbols
 in conjunction with dynamic libraries is completely unrelated to the
 processor architecture; I doubt the one used on Intel processors in 10.4
 will differ much from the one on PowerPCs. (PPC may imply Darwin 8, but
 not the other way around.)

 So I'd prefer keeping ''our'' patch (which is already well-tested), or
 modify it to add a distinction on the Darwin release ({{{`uname -r`}}},
 see above).
