Mac UB standalones and OS versions

[Shari]

Just in case anybody else searches the archives with the same 
questions, here is the latest update on creating standalones for Mac 
OSX prior to 10.3.x.....

I couldn't do it with MC 2.8.1 on my Macintel, even using the PPC 
engine.  I couldn't do it with MC 2.8.1 on the G-3, even using the 
PPC engine.  I had to launch 2.7.4 on the G-3, and do the build with 
it, in order for the standalone to be happy on the G-3 running OS 
10.2.8.

So..... I am wondering if there is a bug in v.2.8.1 of MC/Rev 
regarding PPC Mac standalones?
