Thanks for testing that -- you're running OSX 10.6, right? I guess the TLS stuff got added to clang for the version that's in Xcode 4.2. So it looks like we have a fairly straightforward * 10.5 and 10.6 -> compile a gcc or download a third-party build * 10.7 and above -> use Xcode's clang division. -- PMM
