Dean,
After more searching (still not quite used to new search in 10.4) I did find
the ppc/ansi.h file in the 10.2.8 SDK, but the compiler can't seem to find
it, as shown by the error message in Xcode:
"/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.2.8.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Kernel.framewor
k/Headers/machine/ansi.h:33:22: error: ppc/ansi.h: No such file or directory
