Apple's "Fred Flintstone" Mach-O Runtime architecture is discussed at  
<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/ 
MachORuntime/>. The "Bam Bam" linker is documented in the ld man pages  
- type "man ld" on the terminal command line.

 From the ld man pages (prebinding is the default for executables):

  -prebind
               Have  the  static  linker,  ld(1),  prebind an  
executable's or
               dynamic shared library's undefined symbols to the   
addresses of
               the  dynamic  libraries it is being linked with. This  
optimiza-
               tion can only be done if the libraries don't overlap and  
no sym-
               bols are overridden.

So, maybe the 24-bits message is msleading and there is a symbol naming  
conflict instead (just a wild guess).
