Be careful using Xcode 2.4 on Intel

Hello all,

The Mac Mini Intel Duo core has been giving me trouble with Darwin Ports
1.3.2 and Xcode 2.4 building on a target UFS volume. At first I thought it
was just the problem of building on to Mac OS X Server 10.4.7 Universal
Binary (which does seem to be a problem building some ports such as
cyrus-sasl2 with Xcode 2.2.1) but the xrender port once again crashed on me
when building it (on 10.4.7 Intel client, no the UB server). So now I will
scale back conservatively to Xcode 2.2.1

Hopefully this is helpful to others. This is a strong reminder that once
again, the software always lags hardware developments. Software is much more
difficult to get right and nearly perfected. I think Intel for Mac OS X has
quite a way to go but to be fair we still have quite a bit of the year left
and Apple said that the goal was to do a transformation in the calendar
year, so my expectations are fine and there is no reason to complain.

Best regards,

T.
