Awesome !! Nice start ;-). I guess the iFolder Core Devs have a patch
for this (a similar one). This patch does solve the compilation part of
simias. But we need to checkin (preferably add a dependency ? ) Intel
MAC version of libflaim into trunk.

And iirc there are some issues with the way that we use SOAP for
communication from UI to Simias. So we also need OSX-X86 version of
GSOAP checked into trunk and also the related MAKEFILE changes.

Meanwhile if you are interested to go ahead with this .. you can check
out the ifolder_3_4 branches which has a fixes for intel macs. Thatz a
nice place to start for intel mac ifolder client hacking ..  :-)
