Help with getting started on Mac OS X

[Doug McClure]

Hi,

I'm trying to setup gnats 3.999.2 on a Mac OS X Server but I'm having a 
few problems, and I'm wondering if anyone else has managed to get gnats 
up and running on X Server 10.2.5.

When I build gnats, I get a LOT of errors like these

...
regex.h:434:3: style of line directive is a GCC extension
regex.h:518:3: style of line directive is a GCC extension
regex.h:558:3: style of line directive is a GCC extension
In file included from edit.c:21:
gnats.h:407:3: style of line directive is a GCC extension
edit.c:22:3: style of line directive is a GCC extension
In file included from edit.c:22:
gnatsd.h:2:3: style of line directive is a GCC extension
gnatsd.h:23:3: style of line directive is a GCC extension
...

and some errors like this:

In file included from /usr/include/machine/types.h:30,
                 from /usr/include/stddef.h:63,
                 from ./../include/libiberty.h:129,
                 from gnats.h:37,
                 from edit.c:21:
/usr/include/ppc/types.h:75: warning: ISO C89 does not support `long 
long'
/usr/include/ppc/types.h:76: warning: ISO C89 does not support `long 
long'

In the end, gnatsd did compile, but when inetd tries to start it, I it 
crashes and I get a backtrace like this:

Exception:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes:      KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00091fff

If anybody has gotten it running on X Server, I'd appreciate any help 
you can give me
