-BOINC version 6.1.0 supports only Mac OS X 10.3.9 and later; support for OS 10.3.0 through 10.3.8 has been discontinued.  This allows us to build the BOINC Client and Manager using only GCC 4.0.  However, to ensure that science projects are compatible with older versions of BOINC running under OS 10.3.0 through 10.3.8, the PowerPC builds of the libraries are still built using GCC 3.3.

     Do not link C++ modules compiled with one of these compilers against modules compiled with the other. Even if the modules appear to link correctly, C++ ABI differences may still cause problems that will not manifest themselves until run time. 
 
-If you are building a project application to be run by BOINC, you only need to build the BOINC libraries `libboinc_api.a`, `libboinc.a`, and (if you want graphics) `libboinc_graphics_api.` or `libboinc_graphics2.a`.  (`libboinc_graphics2.a` is used for version 6 graphics, which is the method recommended for all applications.) There are two ways to do this:
-
-  1. Use the BOINC autoconf / automake scripts to build these libraries and the jpeg and curl libraries on which they depend. You must do all of this twice: once on a PowerPC Mac running OS 10.3.x (do NOT use OS 10.4), and once on an Intel Mac running OS 10.4.x.

 After building the libraries as Universal Binaries using the second method, you may still want to build your actual application separately on the two architectures: on a PowerPC Mac running OS 10.3.x (do NOT use OS 10.4), and also on an Intel Mac running OS 10.4.x.  To build for the x86_64 architecture, use a Mac running either OS 10.4 or OS 10.5 and specify the -arch x86_64 option to the compiler and linker.
 
-If you prefer, you can cross-compile on one Mac running OS 10.4.x or OS 10.5.x.  Look at the scripts buildcurl.sh and buildjpeg.sh for examples of environment settings which allow you to do this.
