OK well thanks for all the help - I really do appreciate it a lot. I won't have time to reinstall for the next day or so but will post a followup when I do get it all to work. Cheers! David O.

hello again!
I just discovered that when I had a failure to compile mozilla, there was an entry added to cc1plus.crash.log (pasted below).
Since this is a basic component of the c++ compiler, it really isn't supposed to crash.

I don't really understand what it means, but it looks like KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE is the bad thing that is happening.
This is only the symptom.

I am guessing that the command cc1plus is something to do with the fact that the c++ compiler is what was running when it crashed...?
Yes.

So ... since I had just reinstalled the 10.2 SDK and updates, and since I had checked/fixed the file permissions etc, that the problem is something fundamental to the system and I should go ahead and reinstall
This is more and more looking like the thing to do, indeed.

... or perhaps I can rebuild the kernel - I think I have instructions to do that in one of my books...?
I have never had the courage to do this on OSX (on linux this is the first thing to compile, in general). And the problem might not be the kernel, but some supporting libraries in /System.
