No. I did that with my first Macs, but always regretted it. Just leave it as one volume -- there's very little to gain by partitioning it.

Quoting the relevant bit there --

    There's an unpatched bug with the system Perl that prevents
    some modules (notably DBD::mysql) from building properly.

        ld='MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.3 cc'

    with

        ld='env MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.3 cc'

Other than that, things should Just Work.
