Comment (by mascguy):
I finally bit the bullet, and installed `clang-7.0` on my 2006-era
MacBookPro running 10.5-i386. The biggest hurdle was waiting for
`gcc10-bootstrap` to build, which literally took several days. I didn't
time it - should have kept the build log, to get an accurate figure - but
wouldn't be surprised if it took 48 hours. (The time was split over
multiple days of 8-hour sessions; don't like leaving an old machine like
this cranking away when I'm absent or asleep.)
Anyhow, that's on a dual-core Intel Core CPU, running at 2.16 GHz. So I
can't even fathom trying to build this stack on my 2002 PowerBook G4, as I
expect it to take up to 4 times longer. That's a huge barrier to entry, so
if we can ever get some type of 10.5_x32 builder back online - and publish
public toolchain binaries - that would be tremendously helpful! (Currently
there's active discussion surrounding this, via issue:66288.)
Anyhow, with the requisite toolchain in place, I was able to successfully
build `glib2`... either Quartz or X11. (Albeit 32-bit, and non-universal.)
Riccardo, are you still having issues building on 10.5-x64?
