That's actually not true. An application built for Mac OS X 10.2 will
not run with the same libraries as one built for Mac OS X 10.3 - even
when both of them are run on Mac OS X 10.3.

I'm no expert on this topic, so don't ask me for details - I just
noticed this fact when I was troubleshooting a problem caused by a
behavioural change of NSTableView between Mac OS X 10.2 and Mac OS X
10.3.

Using "otool -L /path/to/the/executable" an application built for Mac
OS X 10.2 would print:

/System/Library/Frameworks/Cocoa.framework/Versions/A/Cocoa
(compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 8.0.0)

While one built for Mac OS X 10.3 would print:

/System/Library/Frameworks/Cocoa.framework/Versions/A/Cocoa
(compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 9.0.0)
