IF that is the case, then I believe that xCode has the capability to do 
a conditional compile of the source. If the library already exists, link 
that in, else compile the source and link THAT instead. Mind you, I 
haven't a clue how to write the script to accomplish this. It should be 
a standard shell script to control gcc though.
