I believe that if you're building a Mach-O app, Apple has explicitly stated that the UPP calls do nothing, don't need to be used, and they even became no-ops in the Leopard headers.
I haven't verified this, it's just what I've heard.

A UPP is a structure that wraps a function pointer. As such, you only need it once for every function. What people generally do is define a UPP as static to a function, and then they can allocate it once, re-use it, and it gets disposed with the rest of the application on shutdown.

That said, many of the UPP calls compile down to no-ops on OS X, because they were mainly invented for calling 680x0 function on PowerPC Macs, and thus in many cases you can just pass a straight ProcPtr into UPP-expecting APIs.
