Support for Mac OSX 10.5

[Mark Schonewille]

Jacque,

Dropping support for 10.5 isn't the same as dropping support for 
PowerPC. AFAIK, PPC support doesn't really exist for quite a while now.

10.5, however, also runs on a number of Mac models with Intel processor 
and LiveCode would no longer be useful on those machines. If I and 
hundres of other LC users want to keep this market, we will have to test 
every release of our software with an old version of LiveCode, to make 
sure that our scripts still work. That's a lot of extra work for everyone.
