Options:

A)
Bump the SDK setting to 10.6, keeping the deployment target at 10.5. Don't call 
any 10.6-only methods when running on 10.5. (i.e. check -respondsToSelector: or 
similar)

B)
Declare the new methods as categories in headers, but don't actually implement 
the methods. That will tell the compiler how to call those new methods. Once 
again, don't call 10.6-only methods while running on 10.5

C)
Fallback to older, deprecated APIs. e.g. -directory
