I've finished pushing the changes needed to get the package set that I use to build on Mavericks. It looks like the new gcc destablized quite a few things, so I'm sure there are other issues lurking. Here's a summary: - gdb_pixbuf: one of the tests now crashes with a bus error, so I switched to using clang to build this derivation - python2.7-gyp: the no-xcode patch that was being used would no longer apply, so I removed it (but will this break the Hydra build machine?) - swig: the swig-ccache tests now fail, so I pass a configure flag to disable the building of swig-ccache - gccApple: needed several new patches to libstdcxx, which is more than a bit troublesome. - ncurses: needed a patch for a bug in clang, though I'm not sure why this crept in just now. - zlib: do not use the new static-libgcc flag, as it doesn't exist on darwin If anyone discovers any other breakages, please let me know here on the list or via GitHub issues.
