regarding the default see the other posts.

just regarding
-MACDEVSDK*=/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk
+MACDEVSDK*=$(MACSDK_PATH)

time to get rid of that from the external modules. That is basically a
hack for Hamburg's non-configure based environment.

(same for the .IF "$(SYSBASE)"!="" checks in various makefiles)

get rid of that special treatment in the individual modules' makefiles.

And probably a switch --with-macosx-deployment-target would be more
appropriate/consistent

Well, but it should/must....
Either by simple version check as it is currently done, or by a
compile/link test.
Configure must not pass when the combination of SDK and compiler is
not suitable.
