Linking against AVKit breaks app on 10.6

When I link my app against AVKit using

    -framework AVKit

it fails to load on 10.6 claiming

    dyld: Library not loaded: /System/Library/Frameworks/AVKit.framework/Versions/A/AVKit
    Referenced from: ...
    Reason: image not found
    Trace/BPT trap

I thought it was possible to dynamically use newer OS X features if the user is
running a newer version. I want my app to run on 10.6 but use newer features where
possible. Thus, I'm compiling and linking using -mmacosx-version-min=10.6.

This seems to work fine for 10.7 frameworks like AV Foundation and Core Media
but it doesn't work for AVKit. Linking against

    -framework AVFoundation -framework CoreMedia

doesn't break compatibility with 10.6 but linking against AVKit does. Is there a
way around this? AFAIR people said that it was possible to use newer OS X features
in apps compiled for older systems so I'm wondering why it doesn't work with AVKit
here...
