It is highly likely, because flat namespace is used only when the  
linker doesn't resolve dynamic symbols correctly (old Xcode had that  
problem).

Nonetheless it exposes a potential problem on older systems, so thanks  
for the report - I'll address the issue ...

Start Xcode, click on "Xcode" -> "About Xcode". There are many other  
indirect ways - e.g. compiler build number (2.5=5531) or xcodebuild - 
version (2.5=798.0).

Cheers,
Simon
