Well, I tried a full build, but didn't get past persistence/db:

/usr/bin/libtool: for architecture: cputype (16777234) cpusubtype (0)  
file: -lSystem is not an object file (not allowed in a library)
make[2]: *** [libdb-4.3.la] Error 1
make[1]: *** [build] Error 2
make: *** [persistence/db] Error 2


But while I was waiting for the build I found an article which shows  
you how to run "raw" Spotlight queries in Tiger.  Neat:
