Well, at a minimum, I'd say "10.3 included in libSystem versions of the
dlopen() routines, but 10.2 didn't have them in libSystem", so, if this was
truly built on 10.3 and run on 10.2, the 10.3 binary might well be expecting
dlopen(), dlsym(), etc. to be present in libSystem, and might well blow up on
10.2, where those routines *aren't* present in libSystem.
That's not where I'd expect it to crash in that case, but that might be the
result of another backwards-compatibility issue; I know of few, if any, OSes
where that guarantee that building for version X will result in a binary that
runs on version Y if Y < X, and Mac OS X is definitely not one of them (you can
build with an SDK for the older release, but you have to explicitly choose to
do so - the default is to build for the OS on which you're running and later
versions).
Unless the person who filed the bug says this wasn't built on an OS release
newer than the one on which they're trying to run it, or indicates that they
built it with the SDK for the older version, I'd close this as
RESOLVED/INVALID.
