Something subtle is still not right about this. If I omit --enable-locbfd from the .configure then I get problems later gettext (unless gettext is already installed elsewhere). But worse is this: $ export LIBRARY_PATH=/home/users/b/bi/billpage/osx/new/gcl-2.6.8pre/binutils/intl Something is strange about the way that gcl links to libintl. On MAC OS if I do not include LIBRARY_PATH and if libintl is not in the system default path, then building gcl fails. If I do include the 'export LIBRARY_PATH ..." then the build succeeds but loading this library is "dynamic". This causes trouble later if I try to use gcl to build Axiom without first setting LIBRARY_PATH. Isn't there some way to force the MAC to static link this library? > Extending this default to the intel should > resolve the -lintl 'out of the box'.
