Re: MzScheme on Darwin

This is not a failure in GNU make, this is a failure in the
configuration of the tool you're trying to build.  It has nothing to do
with make: make simply runs whatever programs you tell it to.  If those
programs fail, there's nothing make can do about that.


Offhand I'd say that configure is mishandling your system, which
probably means your uname program is returning an unexpected result or
something.

Go look where the error tells you:

  mk> ./gcconfig.h:284: parse error before `--'

(That's gcconfig.h, line 284) and see if anything jumps out at you, and
if not send that information to the people who created the program
you're trying to compile.

  mk> I also had Problems installing Gnu CC and Gnu Pascal.

If you had this same problem, then most likely GNU's configure system
doesn't recognize your operating system.  You might ask about this on
the address@hidden mailing list.
