Many thanks for replying.  I installed the developer package from CD
which
says its Tiger version 10.4.6 and includes Xcode 2.

Apple software update means the system is running at the latest
version 10.4.11

I have only one favour and that is could you look in the /usr/lib
directory and see if
  libm is listed or     libm.dylib -> libSystem.dylib.

I can only assume that Xcode 2 possibly uses a different version of
libm to earlier
version of Xcode.

Many thanks in advance
