Yes... That is the state of my first attempts at using Apples compiler.
Things compile and link, but tests would hang indefinately. At the time, and
mostly now also, I didn't have direct access to a MacOSX machine so I didn't
know more than that.

Yes please.

Ralf is there a chance you could do some test to see how one can select the
version of the frameowrk one links against? I'd really like to know if it's
possible as the Apple documentation only alludes to one being able to do it
but doesn't tell you how.
