Sorry, you're right. But though this might not be the reason then, it  
*is* a fact that NSAppKitVersionNumber10_4 is not defined on Tiger,  
but only in Leopard (and later) Just as NSAppKitVersionNumber10_3 was  
only defined on Tiger. I guess the idea is that an app developed on  
Tiger should not try to use Leopard features, so why should it care  
to check for Leopard?
