It's probably not worth investigating this until after we've updated to the latest version of wesnoth. Last time I tried to do this, it took a lot of effort, and only resulted in an app that crashed on startup. That can probably be fixed but I didn't pursue it further at the time.

Just for confirmation, it builds on my Tiger PPC system but throws the same error when launching.

I've updated wesnoth to 1.14.13 so you could try again with that version. But it looks like officially it only supports OS X 10.8 and later, so it may not build at all anymore on older systems.

just for interest, that exception seems to originate in boost <https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_57_0/doc/html/boost_lexical_cast/synopsis.html>.
