No, it does not.

See the README, under Requirements/Mac OS X.  My guess is that you need to 
set gcc to 3.1 or 3.3.

NB: Under Tiger, gcc 4 is in use, and Mac::Carbon will not build under gcc 
4.  One therefore also needs to set gcc to 3.3 under Tiger.  Anyone who 
wants to take on this project of getting it to build under gcc 4 would be my 
own private hero.
