 Oh right, I forgot that. So libtool may contain some code that assumes
 10.6 and later is Intel only. And if so, the creators of the 10.6-on-PPC
 effort would need to patch that.

 That surprises me too because I thought I found something that said
 `dyld_stub_binding_helper` was only for Intel.

 > the build (on my 10.5 system anyway) was using
 {{{/opt/local/bin/libtool}}} for the libtool.

 Ah, ok. Apple libtool from the cctools port. And if libtool assumes 10.6
 and later is Intel, then this libtool would also need a patch for 10.6-on-
 PPC.

 No matter. Avoiding libtool should fix it.
