The general idea is that you *should* be able to build against the most recent SDK and set -mmacosx-version-min when building. This is unfortunately not the case for some parts of the SDK (X11 being one of them). For X11, build against the oldest SDK you want to support.
If you build on SL against the 10.5 SDK, it will work on 10.5.8. It should work on 10.5.5 as well, but it mat not work all the way back on 10.5.0.

If we build our X11 application under Snow Leopard against MacOSX10.5.sdk should we expect it to work on 10.5.5 or should we expect it to work only under the latest point release, 10.5.8? http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/cross_development doesn't seem to make a statement about such compatibility.
