I second the motion for you to upgrade to Xcode 2.4.1, especially if you
are on an Intel Mac.

Note that if you specify only one item in CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES it is
ignored, and will in fact build for whatever architecture your building-
machine is.  Bug 3618.  If you are on Intel anyway, this isn't a big problem.

Maybe try a verbose make?

FWIW, I have several machines here that build VTK CVS with 10.4.10,
Xcode 2.4.1, PPC and Intel, with and without Python and Tcl.  I use the
Python and Tcl that come with the OS.

By any chance, is your hard disk formatted as case-sensitive?  If so,
you may be seeing Bug 4572.

Which version of CMake are you using?

Lastly, I also feel that CVS is better than 5.0.3, on the Mac anyway.
