Re: [swarm-hackers] Swarm on MacOS 10.6 Snow Leopard

[Bill Northcott]

As I see it the 2.3 branch contains none of your MacOS/Run time  
abstraction work.  So you are suggesting I try to bug fix it enough to  
get an old style X11-blt, swarm-libobjc version to build in at least  
ppc and i386 architectures?

I will have a look but it will need a FSF compiler because all the  
current ones have -fgnuruntime broken.

I would like to try to get an Apple runtime build working.
