Seans points are taken. Right now all I know is that if you are
building on 10.5 then you need all this special linker crap due to
the new linker in 10.5. I think I like the idea of parsing the
"sw_vers" output better. Just need to implement it.

I'm wondering the same about this topic. I think Sean might be right
about checking for the SDK target version instead of OS X version,
though I could come up with a contrived example where knowing the
actual OS X version could be important, such as a CMake bug/issue you
need to work around that only appears on 10.4.3 or something. So it
would be good to have both.
A warning about Darwin version checking...don't consider it a reliable
indicator about which OS X version you are using. It is possible for a
developer to upgrade Darwin independently from OS X. I remember seeing
somebody do this before because they needed some feature that wasn't
in the Apple shipping version. I think you should only check Darwin
versions if you are actually dealing directly with Darwin.
