Re: [Chicken-users] Building 32-bit chicken scheme on OS X

[Jim Ursetto]

Dani,

ASSEMBLER_OPTIONS is missing:

make PLATFORM=macosx ARCH=x86 C_COMPILER_OPTIONS="-no-cpp-precomp 
-fno-strict-aliasing -fwrapv -fno-common -DHAVE_CHICKEN_CONFIG_H -m32" 
ASSEMBLER_OPTIONS="-m32" LINKER_OPTIONS="-m32"

The resulting chicken gives me a bus error though and I don't know how to fix 
that.
