Bob,

Sorry, I don't have any publicly-visible machines.  I do have both  
10.5.7 and 10.4.11 running on different machines though and would be  
happy to build specific revisions and/or tarballs cgdb on those  
machines and send you the script output so you can verify a successful  
build (a manual tinderbox).
