Comment (by mascguy):

 I finally bit the bullet, and installed `clang-7.0` on my 2006-era
 MacBookPro running 10.5-i386. The biggest hurdle was waiting for
 `gcc10-bootstrap` to build, which literally took several days. I didn't
 time it - should have kept the build log, to get an accurate figure - but
 wouldn't be surprised if it took 48 hours. (The time was split over
 multiple days of 8-hour sessions; don't like leaving an old machine like
 this cranking away when I'm absent or asleep.)

 Anyhow, that's on a dual-core Intel Core CPU, running at 2.16 GHz. So I
 can't even fathom trying to build this stack on my 2002 PowerBook G4, as I
 expect it to take up to 4 times longer. That's a huge barrier to entry, so
 if we can ever get some type of 10.5_x32 builder back online - and publish
 public toolchain binaries - that would be tremendously helpful! (Currently
 there's active discussion surrounding this, via issue:66288.)

 Anyhow, with the requisite toolchain in place, I was able to successfully
 build `glib2`... either Quartz or X11. (Albeit 32-bit, and non-universal.)

 Riccardo, are you still having issues building on 10.5-x64?
