In 2.4.x, X-Code project are still being used. But X-Code being a so
fantastic tools that projects breaks each time Apple rush a new release.
The project DO work with the X-Code that works with 10.3. 10.4 requires
a newer version, and the projects do not work with it. Even less on
Intel. Blame Apple, afterall they are the one breaking things that
nobody else can fix.

It is likely adding some missing files.
2.5.x works, but I'm not sure you want to ship that. No warranties about
an Intel or Universal Build, as so far, the only Apple offered us to
help is access to the lab, not free.
The Mac port needs serious love from a serious developer.
