No, they're two separate binaries. (Trust me there's a good

I hate to say this, but I don't quite trust you on that. :)
What's the reason? I've seen an awful lot of cases over the past
year where folks thought they needed separate binaries but I've
yet to see one which actually did. Maybe you'll be the first....
Because the application I'm writing has to run on all versions of
Panther, down to 10.3.0. (Part of its function is to make sure the
user is up-to-date on point releases.) To compile a universal
binary, you need to use gcc 4.0, and in order to run applications
compiled with gcc 4.0, you must be running 10.3.9.
How's that work for you? :)
Not too well. :) You only need to use gcc 4.0 for the Intel side,
but the PowerPC side of your binary can use any Mach-O compiler at
all, including gcc 2.95.3 or even CodeWarrior. If you're building
both sides with Xcode, you can do this entirely within the Xcode UI:

It might be interesting to build the PowerPC side of your binary
with gcc 4.0 as a test case to make sure your dlsym call continued
to work there. Even so, I'd still suggest running nm on both
slices (whether two binaries or just one) to make sure the expected
symbol shows up for both architectures.
Heh okay, looks like you win. :) Thanks for the link. And I already
know the symbol is getting exported correctly; I ran `nm' on the
Intel binary just to be sure, forgot to mention that.
I'll see what happens on the PowerPC side if I compile with gcc 4.0,
too. Thanks for the tip.
