I have seen reports that Lazarus doesn't run on Mac OS X 10.2.8. http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php? name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=3141 Is this version of Mac OS X still supported by FPC?

The compiler works fine, but Mac OS X 10.2.8 did not include a dlopen/ dlclose/... emulation layer by default. You have to install dlcompat there (it's a.o. in the fink distribution for that version of the OS), and link your program against that (you can also install/use dlcompat on later OS versions, but that adds extra and unneeded dependencies for those OS versions and fink does not include dlcompat anymore for them).

Thanks. I posted your answers on the forums.
