Yeah, and it's still miscompiled. :-/

You're trying to pass compiler flags to mkoctfile. It doesn't accept
compiler flags. It accepts a very small subset of flags that look like
compiler flags, but the weird flags that McOS10 uses aren't accepted
(why -framework Accelerate instead of -lAccelerate)?

An interesting further example of flag that mkoctfile should not
accept is "-Wall", except it does due to a long-standing bug that we
now have to keep around.

This is why homebrew, fink, and macports try to ease the process for you.
