right the archive show something in 2006-11.
re-reading the archives, i see that it is not very clear on the final
result: it might as well have worked after my fixes back then.

again: mmacosx-version-min is about the target platform, not the compile
platform. i guess one can use a recent compiler and recent features of
this compiler and still run on a target machine that would not be able
to compile the entire shebang.
so the question is not whether it builds on 10.3 but whether it runs on 10.3

darn.
but this means that the macosx-version-min doesn't help us here either.
