 Yes it is. The original bug, the requirement to build the Growl Automator
 action before building Growl, was fixed in Growl 15 months ago. Every
 problem reported since then is a different bug or no bug at all.

 > I failed to port growl after patching it from 1.1.4 to 1.1.6

 Why are you bringing it up to 1.1.6? Growl is currently at 1.2 and 1.2.1
 is currently in beta.

 (And why patch anything? We distribute the sources for every version.)

 Growl 1.2 requires Leopard to build, by the way. There are only three
 things that still build for Tiger (i.e., use the 10.4u SDK), and none of
 them come on the disk image.

 The problem you're seeing is caused by Apple's change of the default GCC
 version to 4.2, which, as the error message says, doesn't work with the
 Tiger SDK. If you want to build 1.1.6 (for whatever reason), you'll need
 to patch the Xcode project to explicitly use GCC 4.0.
