So you presume that IBM AIX compiler would work for macos 10.2.7? I
honestly do not know, but would assume a AIX compiler would not work on
10.2.7. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

You are kidding right? Lets try this again:
" Ok, then the day of wwdc, what compiler would of produced a higher
score for the power mac g5 running macos 10.2.7?
