Doug's notification to me about the Mac mailing list was timely.
SPSS has sent me an E-mail outlining problems with SPSS 11.0.3 and the latest version of OS X. As soon as they notify me of the patch I will pass the information on.

On Friday, April 29th, Apple released Macintosh OS X 10.4, otherwise known as Tiger. Our testing has discovered that SPSS 11.0.3 for Macintosh OS X will not run on the 10.4 version of the OS X operating system. We are working on resolving this problem and a patch will be made available as soon as possible to allow SPSS 11.0.3 to function on Macintosh OS X 10.4. A proactive notification will be sent to you when the patch is available for downloading.
SPSS apologizes for any inconvenience this has caused. If you have any questions or problems, please contact your local SPSS support team. We are continually striving to improve our communication to our clients. However, if you do not wish to receive further proactive e-mails from SPSS Support, please reply to this message with REMOVE on the subject line.
Thank you for your patience,
SPSS Technical Support
