Comment (by macca8):

 The test build still crashes on launch on 10.5, however, there’s been some
 progress in identifying the source. Still no backtrace, but the crash
 report is now:
 ''Dyld Error Message:''
   ''Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libcurl.4.dylib
   Referenced from: …/ScummVM.app/Contents/MacOS/scummvm
   Reason: Incompatible library version: scummvm requires version 6.0.0 or
 later, but libcurl.4.dylib provides version 5.0.0''

 At the end of the day, it comes down to reward for effort.

 Restricting the 32 bit release to 10.6 & later would satisfy the majority
 of users. It would also provide consistency across all versions of macOS
 covered by that release, by excluding the changes required for 10.5.

 Intel Mac users requiring support for 10.5 & earlier can achieve similar
 performance from the daily stable build, which is working on 10.5.
 Perhaps a message could be posted in the Daily Builds section of the
 Downloads page alerting those users to its availability.

 I would be in favour of the change, if that’s how you choose to proceed,
 in which case this ticket can be closed.
