With the recent updates to MOSX and Darwin, does anyone know if the developer tools have also been updated? Not so much Apple's GUI tools, but the underlying Darwin/BSD stuff like libtool, ranlib, cc/gcc et. al.?
Contrary to popular belief, Darwin 1.3.1 is not that much more current than Mac OS X. .1 merely denotes an opensource revision.
If you want to be at the cutting edge, you should join darwin-development and build the latest tools from CVS frequently. I know for a fact that it's possible to bootstrap GCC 3.0 under Darwin. It's not easy, but possible. Things are also not particularly easy under OS X, if you want to build Darwin I suggest you do it on Darwin
If that's part of GCC 3.0 (I'm not sure if it is or not, I haven't investigated) then you could try searching the darwin-development archives at darwinfo.org for directions on GCC 3.0, people have been recompiling with varying levels of success on OS X and Darwin 1.3.1.
