Comment (by kencu):

 For 10.4 and 10.5, we had pegged the last versions of SDL for those
 systems that we could make work reasonably well. They were getting pretty
 old though, and not much current software was restricting itself to the
 API those old versions of SDL provided.

 For those systems, either a lot of holdbacks on software were going to be
 needed, or perhaps the X11 miracle might be shown to work and give them
 new life.

 (OTOH, I heard you say X11 is completely nonfunctional for you on 10.5
 now, so --- no idea about that, but if so, that is pretty bad news for
 10.5 and less.).
