Main.log from PPC Tiger, Mac OS X 10.4.11

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

I've seen other tickets submitted recently about the same missing symbol in other ports on Tiger, or at least another symbol ending with $UNIX2003, and I thought legacy support had support for that, and I see legacy support is already being used in the port. Maybe something has broken in legacy support. Or maybe it's something else. I'm not investing time in fixes for Tiger right now, but feel free to research the issue on your own and either work with the developer to fix it, improve legacy support, or submit fixes for the port if it's important to you.

It was the same symbol, in #69277 about gawk.
