Yes, the XCode name came around with 10.3.  Apple's instructions for installing 
it are here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301408#5

Also, if you want Apple's X11, you'll probably need to install that from the 
DVD too.  (Not necessary with AquaTerm).  Again, Apple's info:

Is this now called XcodeTools.mpkg which I have on the install DVD?  
Does it replace what was called Mac OS X 10.2 Dev Tools which I had  
installed on my old iMac running OS X 10.2 plus Aug 2002 Updater and  
Oct 2002 patch.
