Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.1.8) Gecko/20071008 Firefox/2.0.0.8

Background:
I have been compiling the Firefox 2.0.X series on Mac OS X Tiger for some time now, but I cannnot compile Firefox (2.0.0.8) on Mac OS X Leopard.
On Leopard I receive the following compilation error when attempting to compile Firefox 2.0.0.8:

gcc -o prlink.o -c      -pipe -Wmost -fno-common -no-cpp-precomp -pthread -O -fPIC  -UDEBUG  -DMOZILLA_CLIENT=1 -DNDEBUG=1 -DHAVE_VISIBILITY_HIDDEN_ATTRIBUTE=1 -DXP_UNIX=1 -DDARWIN=1 -DHAVE_BSD_FLOCK=1 -Di386=1 -DXP_MACOSX=1 -DHAVE_LCHOWN=1 -DHAVE_STRERROR=1  -DFORCE_PR_LOG -D_PR_PTHREADS -UHAVE_CVAR_BUILT_ON_SEM -D_NSPR_BUILD_ -I/Users/dave/src/mozilla/obj-i686-apple-darwin9.0.0/dist/include/nspr -I/Users/dave/src/mozilla/nsprpub/pr/include -I/Users/dave/src/mozilla/nsprpub/pr/include/private -I/Developer/Headers/FlatCarbon  /Users/dave/src/mozilla/nsprpub/pr/src/linking/prlink.c

/Users/dave/src/mozilla/nsprpub/pr/src/linking/prlink.c: In function ‘pr_LoadMachDyldModule’:



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compile Firefox 2.0.0.8 on Mac OS X leopard WITHOUT using the Tiger SDK
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
/Users/dave/src/mozilla/nsprpub/pr/src/linking/prlink.c:48:
/usr/include/signal.h:84: error: syntax error before numeric constant

Expected Results:  
Sucessfully Compilation

You have to compile with the 10.4u SDK if you're going to build Gecko 1.8.x.
