I haven't tried gpc-20060325 with gcc-4 on Mac OS X 10.3. I guess it is 
possible, because I do have a FSF gcc 4.0 C compiler running on Mac OS 
X 10.3.9. However, for important new features like creating 64-bit 
applications, you would need Mac OS X 10.4 anyway, so there is no point 
in moving to gcc-4 on Mac OS X 10.3, as gcc-3.4.x is more stable at 
this point.

Since I sold my old G4, I can not run and test Mac OS X 10.2 anymore (I 
now have a G5 with 10.3.9 and 10.4).

For building details, have a look at the scripts that come with the 
source code at my website (the build process for the 32-bit compilers 
hasn't changed).

odcctools is a great project, especially for creating cross-compilers 
targeting Mac OS X. It should be possible to use both Apple cctools and 
Open Darwin odcctools.
