Yes I think too that's the linker is at fault.
That make me think about another project that I can't build with XCode 3
on Leopard.
The linker return this strange error:
ld: scattered reloc r_address too large
By googling it I found that "it seems to be related to a relative
relocation address being bigger than 24 bits".
(http://eiffelstudio.origo.ethz.ch/node/132).
Once again, there is no problem with Xcode 2.5 on Leopard.

That indeed sounds like a very odd case. After all, we all were taught that computers as of today are deterministic machines, so the same input should create the same result...
If you want to get to the root of the issue, I still suggest looking at the detailled build results. Unfortunately, other than that I have no idea.
I've had numerous problems maintaining Panther compatibility and I
have a strong suspicion that it's the linker that's at fault, not gcc.
I believe the linker was radically changed in Leopard. I'm sure I've
reported some of the problems to Apple.
Anyway, that could explain the differences between Xcode 2.5 and Xcode
3 that you're seeing.
Kind regards,
Chris
