Hi Eduardo,

yes gm2 doesn't yet build on apple macs. Two of us are also currently
working on this as well. I believe the latest cvs will get further
than this but then it fails when gcc compiles the C translated
sources (via p2c) - the problem we are currently facing is the
lack of case sensitivity between filenames on the filesystem.
Specifically #include "SYSTEM.h" and #include "system.h" read the
same file.
