  <tr><th>3</th><td>AGL or Tiger only support 32 bit, 64 bit possible with GLX
      on Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. Tested on i386 and ppc using 10.4 Tiger and on
      i386 and x86_64 using 10.5 Leopard. Universal libraries and universal
      binary support. Makefile-based build environment, no XCode or framework
      support yet.</td></tr>

      Unix-like operating system requires minimal porting effort, mostly for
      compiler differences.</td></tr>
