Most of the errors/warnings started with r570 when Ruby head was  
imported, so they're not really YARV problems per-say.

I'm surprised you get deprecated messages on a G4 as I only see them  
when I compile on Intel (on a G5 I don't get any deprecated warnings).

dln.c:1478: warning: 'NSIsSymbolNameDefined' is deprecated (declared  
at /usr/include/mach-o/dyld.h:150)
dln.c:1481: warning: 'NSLookupAndBindSymbol' is deprecated (declared  
at /usr/include/mach-o/dyld.h:158)

Looking at Apple's documentation on dynamic loading (http:// 
developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Reference/ 
MachOReference/Reference/reference.html) it would seem that starting  
in 10.3 it would be best to use "normal" dynamic loading functions  
(dlfcn.h) instead of the Mach-O specific stuff (mach-o/dyld.h).  
Removing all the checks for __APPLE__ in dln.c gets rid of those  
warnings, but users of 10.0 - 10.2 would have problems (they still  
need mach-o/dyld.h) so that is not a proper solution.

As for the linking warnings (multiple definitions of _setregid &  
_setreuid), which are the most noticeable since they're right at the  
end, it seems they're expected -_-?
