How best do I get to use OpenMP on Mac OS X 10.5 and Ubuntu 10.4?

I'm looking at an open-source library (DDS, a double-dummy bridge solver) which in its latest release (2.1.1) adds some very useful multi-tasking functionality requiring either a Windows system or OpenMP (indeed, that latest version won't even compile at all on a non-Windows system without full OpenMP support!-). Ubuntu 10.4 has a packa...

Can Ruby on Rails 3.0 run on Mac OS X Leopard 10.5? (instead of Snow Leopard)

It seems that most of Rails 3, Ruby 1.9.2 can be used, but when it is sqlite3-ruby, or mysql2 gems, then it can't compile, (missing mkmf?) and the latest Xcode is needed. But the latest Xcode is for Snow Leopard only. So looks like the Macbook needs to be upgraded to Snow Leopard before Rails 3 can be used? ...

Python 2.7 OS X installer, mod_wsgi and Apache

The Python 2.6 OS X installer didn't support 64 bit architectures, necessitating some chicanery to get mod_wsgi, Python 2.6 and Apache2 working on 10.5. However, the Python 2.7 OS X installer does build a 'fat' Python install, so I'd like to know if anyone's tried this setup before I ditch my current Python 2.6 local setup, rebuild mod_...
