 Guessing from the file name of the download (which includes -tiger), am
 I correct in assuming that the WxLua pre-built download on the website
 is incompatible with Mac OS X 10.3.9?

It was built using the 10.4u SDK, so it requires 10.4 Tiger or later
(easier that way, since you can use the same one for PowerPC and Intel)

 I'm pretty clueless when it comes to Macs, and where I had the 
 pre-built
 Windows version running the samples within seconds (dragging the 
 samples
 to the wxlua binary) I can't for the life of me work out how to do such
 under Mac OS, and when I just double-click on wxlua, it quits
 unexpectedly.  Unfortunately, Mac OS X seems to want to shield me from
 the technical reasons and only offers to tell Apple about them, not me.

The details are available from log in 
/Applications/Utilities/Console.app
(or you can choose to preview the crash log first, before sending it 
off)

Dragging wasn't working in the available build, so it's a missing 
feature.

 Any pointers or definitive answers as to if it should work at all?

It is of course possible to build a version of wxLua that would work
on Panther too, but there hasn't been any demand for it since it's EOL.

 Gah - why does Mac stuff so frequently only run on (very) recent
 versions?  The only Mac hardware I have to had is an ancient iMac.  I
 note that the Windows version of WxLua runs happily on a much older
 version of Windows than Mac OS X 10.3!

I guess Apple likes their developers buying new stuff... :-)
Also, wxWidgets 2.8 with Unicode support is sorta buggy on
Mac OS X 10.3 (and probably doesn't even compile on earlier)
so the builds I made were using wxWidgets 2.6.4 ANSI on 10.3

Anyway, 10.3.9 is doable. Earlier versions would be more pain.

10.3.9 is what I'm running here - I'm led to believe it's the latest
that'll sensibly run on the hardware.  What's involved in getting WxLua
running on it?  Having spent a short age downloading XCode to install on
it, it gives me the helpful message An unknown error occurred (999) -
I doubt I have enough disc space anyway - the machine's hard disc is
only 4GB.

Panther is/was a great release, so you are probably right there.
(my main reason for upgrading to Tiger was so it'd run on Intel)

Not sure if wxLua 2.8 works with my old wxWidgets 2.6, though...

I have only used the usual ./configure approach for wxLua, although I
was able to make the CodeWarrior and Xcode projects work with effort...

Xcode 1.5 is the version you want, although 1.2 should also work OK.

PS. You might be able to install it using MacPorts, as port wxLua
