I put up a downloadable 2.3.5 dmg on sourceforge on Monday. It's intel- 
only; I'm still struggling with getting everyhing to cross-compile on  
my Mac Pro. (My G4 is Tiger, and WebKit needs the 10.5 sdk because it  
uses Objective C++ which was introduced in 10.5.) I told it to build  
for 10.4, but I don't know whether it will actually run.

It suffers from the same crash in the save-file-as dialog that was  
reported here on Tuesday, as does the Intel-2.2.9.2 binary. I was able  
to make a PPC binary without the problem and uploaded it Tuesday  
evening, as I reported earlier.
