Unless I'm mistaken that text was added by a third party via a

Good to know. Unfortunately, although gitless is already in MP, the developer 
doesn't mention it, but alas, HB

Will see how this is on my PPC machines at home.

The symbols and linkage and construction are os version dependent. 

The easiest thing to do would be to install ibgcc on the 10.4 system using 
MacPorts, and see if that works to support your application when you build it 
on 10.5 and move it backwards. It might work just doing that. It might not.

If not, then it gets complicated. Cameron Kaiser builds TenFourFox for PPC 
machines, a Firefox clone. It's about as complicated a piece of software that 
exists for PPC these days, and he has all these issues. He has a lot of 
documentation regarding how he does this on his github repo, but in essence, 
builds against the 10.4u SDK on 10.5, and sets the deployment target to 10.4. 
Then moves the parts into the application bundle and rejigs the library links.

All rather complicated, but interesting in how it's done.

Far easier to just build your application on 10.4 PPC in the first place. 
That's what I do for most things.

I'll check that out. Thanks for the tip.

Best,

Thanks, this indeed solved all my problems! The malloc errors have disappeared
and the linker warning as well. Thanks a lot for the hint!

There's just one little problem remaining: I cannot use gcc-ar-mp-6 because
it reports the following error: "Cannot find plugin liblto_plugin.so".
So I just use the "ar" that came with Xcode and it worked fine but maybe
gcc-ar-mp-6 should be fixed.

Another question: How can I make my program compatible with 10.4? I currently
compile on my G5 system which has 10.5 installed. When I try to run the
program on a G4 10.4 system I get a symbol import error from 
/usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib.
Do I have to install macports-gcc-6 on the 10.4 system in order to be able
to run my program on 10.4 or is there anything else that needs to be taken care
of?

Definitely. PPC rules. I'm also running MorphOS on my PowerPC Macs. This
is another PPC operating system inspired by AmigaOS.
