I have reports from Russel Winder and now Stefan Rank that this does
not work.  I guess they do not have the 10.4 SDK installed.

Maybe we should put back "MINOSXVERSION=10.5" in the Makefile?
Also, the argument "-sdk macosx$(MINOSXVERSION)" to the "xcode"
command does not seem to work.  Maybe the SDKROOT definitions in
  src/uimacnew/uimacnew.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj
take precedence, and we should just remove them?
