Not yet - head has changed enough from branch that I am not sure how a C++ build will fare; plus the fact that it pulls in libtool and more of gnulib, so it has more potential points of failure. It's not my highest priority, but it is on the list of cool things to try before 2.0. > I'll have to get Gettext-0.16 building on > Mac OS X before I can build m4 again :-( Good luck with that. Actually, if you were to hack configure.ac to drop the requirement back to gettext 0.15 in your build tree, Mac might give a successful build. 0.15 is only incompatible with automake 1.10+ in the sense that it fails to install on systems that lack a decent mkdir(1), but I don't think Mac falls in that category. > Research Scientist ( '/ http://blog.azazil.net Your road-trip sounds fun! - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
