FB 1.0 SS never worked right on OS X. There is a bug somewhere, but I
never found it. So there is a good reason the build doesn't exist! I
have used and test a SS build of 1.5 before, and it works. But I don't
have a tested build of 1.5 for OS X. So I'd stick with 1.0 CS for now,
and hopefully I'll get a 1.5 SS build available within a few months
(but don't place any money on that timeframe, I've been swamped with
other things lately with no end in sight).
