One reason that we knew that it wasn't a problem with a corrupt file in the source (which definitely could happen--I had to patch a property list file that generated a non-functional application for wxmaxima-mac at on point) is that this version of libx264* had been in the distribution for a while, and initially had built OK. So nothing had changed in it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.
