I'm pretty sure you need the macosx patch, so your second try is
probably the way to proceed. I never heard of needing to change regex
versions on Max OS X, so I don't think that substitution is a good idea.
Are you sure that using g++/strstream.h in place of stream.h is correct?
It strikes me as a bit odd, possibly wrong, and it's not mentioned at
all in Scott's article. Maybe you're missing the correct stream.h header
file on your system.
Where does the bus error occur? Can you get stack backtraces of the
various programs that crash, and if so, are they all failing at about
the same point?
