No. 10.3 did not allow any 64 bit applications whatsoever.
10.4 allowed command-line only applications on a very limited set of system calls (system.framework and accelerate.framework).
10.5 finally allows to write 64bit GUI applications, and Apple didn't give a definitive answer to what APIs are available in 64bit until the day 10.5 shipped to end users. And that's why you don't see any 64bit applications for OS X - the only two that I'm aware of are Xcode and Chess (and none of the two benefits from 64bit).

So much for all of the Apple hype (and lies).  This is like the third time that I've caught Apple 'bending the truth'.  They still have (unless Maxon demanded it removed) a mention of Cinema 4D running as 64-bit on MacOS X (which is patently untrue).  Thanks for the clarity!

ETA: What about the hype about Adobe Photoshop migrating to 64-bit on MacOS X?

C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot. C++ makes it harder, but when you do, you blow your whole leg off.
