Mac OS X 10.4.5 is quite old. Please update to 10.4.10 with all other updates suggested by Software Update. I don't know if this is related to the problem, but it's just good to do anyway.
If your OS is this old, perhaps your Xcode is out of date too. Please make sure you're using Xcode 2.4.1, not any older version. Get it here if necessary: http://developer.apple.com/tools/xcode/
argtable 2.4_0 installed OK for me on Intel 10.4.10, but I see 2.7 has been released. I'm Cc'ing the maintainer of argtable to see if he can update the port if appropriate.
sorry about the typing error, I am actually using 10.4.10 but xcode I used is 2.3, so i will try to update xcode first, see if it works, and I will give feedback later, anyway thx for your kind help. :D
