Fortunately, most of my system incompatibilities have come down to
missing symbols or libraries. In these cases you usually crash or
quit with a very informative console dump or crash log.
In the rare case that I do need to debug something, I usually resort
to just using command-line gdb. In these cases it has just been to
avoid the nuisance of upgrading Xcode.
It might be worth keeping an Xcode 1.5 compatible project around, so
you can copy the project file over to the machine in question. I did
this on one of my projects and it also served as a useful opportunity
to switch from ".pbproj" to ".xcode". Of course, if the bug doesn't
occur when compiling on the older system, I guess that's of little help.

Then this thought hit me: How to I debug apps in 10.3?
I keep several partitions on an external drive for regression
testing against older (sometimes newer) versions of the OS, so it's
trivial matter to run my apps on 10.3 or 10.2. But what about
_debugging_ them.
Once I've upgraded to Xcode 2.0 will I still be able to load the
project and run the debugger in Xcode 1.5?
Or will remote debugging save me? Can I remotely debug an
application running under 10.2 or 10.3 from a second computer
running 10.4, or do both systems have to be running the same
version of the debugger?
