There have been some significant changes under the hood especially in term of extra libraries, api calls, file permissions and the way permissions of a process are handled. You can install the Dev Studio 5.5 on Panther and the installer will work. The journey to the Panther release version saw the installed Dev Studio work on some seeds and not on others. The 5.5.3 build does work on Panther but you have to play with the permissions to allow the app to create the initial preference files. We are just finalizing an installer that will sense the OS X version and install with different privileges and user/group for Jaguar and Panther.
This is just from my own personal experience but you would have to be brave to use Panther on a production system at this stage. I think that Panther was released a little prematurely to be able to get it on machines for the Christmas buying season. I would be waiting for the first or second update which I think will be released quite quickly.
