If you're sharing the project between developers, they both need to be
using the same SDK (ie. 10.5 in this example). The end product will
run on both 10.4 and 10.5, but the development has to be done on a
10.5 machine (you can't develop for future OS's from an older OS).
Another option (for someone working with others on an older OS) might
be to create a Leopard-only bundle. You could then write the Leopard
only code using the SDK at 10.5, deployment on 10.4 and then load the
bundle under 10.5 and access it that way. Your 10.4 developer won't be
able to compile it, but he could still build the main project, which
would have the SDK at 10.4.
Everyone being on 10.5 is a much better option and the cost of
upgrading is easily made up for by the simpler development approach
(unless there is a specific reason why the person can't upgrade to
10.5).
