<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">Dear Mercury experts:
<div>I must have overlooked something in trying to install Mercury compiler 11.07.2 on MacOSX 10.7.4 using XCode 4.5.2. I proceeded this way:</div>
<div>./configure --with-cc=clang</div>
<div>make</div>
<div>sudo make install</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The first two steps did not give an error, though during the long make the following happened along the way</div>

</div>
<div>I've tried other variants, such as </div>
<div>./configure --with-cc=clang --disable-most-grades</div>
<div>./configure --with-cc="clang -m64"</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm afraid I'm a loss how to proceed. Has someone installed Mercury on Macintosh under similar configuration conditions? Perhaps I just overlooked something in the installation.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I switched to clang, since the README.MacOS states clearly:</div>
<div>
<div><font face="Helvetica">=========================================================</font></div>
<div><font face="Helvetica">IMPORTANT NOTE FOR FOR USERS OF MAC OS X 10.7 AND XCODE 4</font></div>
<div><font face="Helvetica">=========================================================</font></div>
<div><font face="Helvetica"><br>
</font></div>
<div><font face="Helvetica">The default C compiler provided in XCode 4 is llvm-gcc.</font></div>
<div><font face="Helvetica">Mercury does NOT work with llvm-gcc. In order to build Mercury you will either</font></div>
<div><font face="Helvetica">need to use one of the other C compilers available on the system, either GCC</font></div>
<div><font face="Helvetica">4.2 or clang. With XCode 4 "gcc" is actually a symbolic link for llvm-gcc; the</font></div>
<div><font face="Helvetica">GCC 4.2 executable is named "gcc-4.2".</font></div>
<div><font face="Helvetica"><br>
</font></div>
<div><font face="Helvetica">Alternatively, the MacPorts project, <http://www.macports.org/>, provides more</font></div>
<div><font face="Helvetica">recent versions of GCC for Mac OS X.</font></div>

<div><font face="Helvetica">As llvm-gcc is no longer supported as of version 3.0 of LLVM, we have no</font></div>

<div><font face="Helvetica">If anyone has any thoughts, I'd appreciate it! Sorry again to disturb you all, and I apologize in advance if I'm just too inexperienced or if I've missed something obvious.</font></div>
