I'm not sure it's possible, but fink does have version 2.0.2  
available in unstable for system 10.3

You might think that as the maintainer of the fink gnucash 2.x series  
I'd know for sure that it works, but my fuzzy recollection is that  
someone did test 2.0.2 on 10.3 and reported it worked. It would be  
much nicer if that someone had tested 2.0.5 at least, but...

I'll see if someone can try 2.2.1 on 10.3.

I have an iBook with 10.4 on it. I'll have to clean off some stuff to  
make enough room for gnome, but I'll see if I can get to it next week  
(It's the first week of classes, and I'm teaching mostly stuff I  
haven't taught before.)
