I'd recommend using the development version - it has quite a few build
fixes for OSX.
I build DOLFIN under OSX 10.8, but I don't use Dorsal. You can get
almost everything you need from Macports. To make it work, I:
1. Install all the available dependencies via Macports
2. Set default gcc/g++ to GCC 4.7 or 4.8 (there is a Macports command
that is easy to find on the net, but I don't recall it)
3. Set default Python toy python2.7 via Macports
4. Set compiler variables:
export OMPI_CC=gcc
export OMPI_CXX=g++
export CXX=g++
export CC=gcc
From memory, the only Macports package that may give you trouble is
Armadillo, which you may need to installed by hand.
There is a Macports 'port' in the works.
