Hi there. The culprit appears to be a bug in our use of sigsetjmp, which is actually already fixed in recent stability/4.8.0 (after 4.8.0.3) but is as yet unreleased. I verified 32-bit builds now work on a 64-bit Mac.
If anyone has a 32-bit Mac (for example, an original Core Duo) could you verify it works on your system as well? You will need to build stability/4.8.0 from git, or I can make a tarball if you aren't set up to build from git. Jim (P.S. On a 32-bit system it is redundant to add any options like ARCH or *_OPTIONS; `make PLATFORM=macosx` will suffice.) On Jan 11, 2013, at 2:21 AM, Daniel P.
