There’s no technical objection from me (and I for one find the asm more readable without the stubs)
However, this does represent a change in policy (no longer supporting generation of objects in 10.4 format);
It might well be moot in that 10.4 native tools probably cannot consume current binaries anyway (because of the version load commands). That’s definitely true of the “cctools” related tools (e.g. ar), right now I don’t have a 10.4 system up to check whether the ld from xcode 2.5 can link .o files with version load commands.
