One way is manually splitting the binary using lipo (e.g. lipo -extract 
i386 binary -output binary.i386) and then checking dependencies for each 
of the files (e.g. otool -L binary.i386). Things to look out for are e.g. 
libgcc_s and libstdc++, which are available from 10.3.9 onwards. It also 
tells you which version of the libraries it requires.
