bug#1151: Building Emacs on Mac OS 10.3.9

[Alex]

I'm trying to build Emacs from CVS on my old iBook running Mac OS 10.3.9.

The last Emacs I built on this machine was GNU Emacs 22.1.1
(powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0, Carbon Version 1.6.0) of 2007-06-05 on
Alpinobombus.local

I also tried to build Emacs 22.3 on this iBook a while ago and it
ended with the following error:
ld: /usr/lib/gcc/darwin/3.3/libgcc.a(_fixunssfdi.o) illegal reference
to symbol: ___cmpdi2 defined in indirectly referenced dynamic library
/usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib

So now I'm trying Emacs from CVS:

./configure --with-ns
make bootstrap

This is where it ends:

Do some workarounds mentioned in etc/PROBLEMS work?

*** Mac OS X 10.3.9 (Carbon): QuickTime updater breaks build.

Some QuickTime updaters such as 7.0.4 and 7.2.0 are known to break
build at the link stage with the message like "Undefined symbols:
_HICopyAccessibilityActionDescription referenced from QuickTime
expected to be defined in Carbon".  A workaround is to use a QuickTime
reinstaller.  Alternatively, you can link with the frameworks in the
corresponding SDK by specifying LDFLAGS as
"-Wl,-F/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.3.0.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks".
