This would be an appropriate time I suppose to say I am attempting to build numpy, scipy and matplotlib on 10.9. NDA of course prohibits me (unfortunately) from really discussing things but safe to say I would support "moving on". There are a multitude of issues that would be resolved by dropping support for PPC (build complexity) and supporting SDKs versions > 10.6.
I don't think dropping anything will help you with building on 10.9. Unless you're trying to replicate the numpy binaries? There's now two builds: 1. 10.5+, universal binary, 32bit Intel + PPC 2. 10.6+, universal binary, 32bit Intel + 64bit Intel You need the latter, so dropping the former doesn't really make a difference. You also don't need to worry about getting your binary to run on 10.6-10.8 I guess, so you're left with: 3. 10.9 universal binary, 32bit Intel + 64bit Intel We're not going to drop the 32-bit part of that build, so nothing changes for building for yourself on recent OS X's.
