Comment (by mojca):

 I'm currently using the 10.5 SDK on 10.6 in order to cross-compile TeX
 Live for 10.5 ppc & i386. I remember that at some point the binaries would
 fail to run on 10.5 otherwise (despite setting the minimum os version to
 10.5), but I didn't try to check if that's still the case. And next year
 TL will most likely require C++11, but if MacPorts installs libc++ that
 won't really help me in any way since I won't be able to distribute those
 binaries to others without MacPorts. (I didn't yet figure out whether
 shipping C++11 binaries for 10.5 users and ppc users in particular is
 actually doable.)

 Just curious: what happens if someone installs two instances of MacPorts
 on the same machine under a different prefix and then uninstalls `libcxx`
 on one of them?
