Thanks Raul. Very helpful indeed.
vsuffix_z_ =: 'so.9.03'
saved the day and everything works fine now.
I seem to have the correct pacman.ijs:
$ find j903 -name pacman.ijs | xargs grep vsuffix=
vsuffix=. ('Darwin'-:UNAME){::'so.9.03';'9.03.dylib'
$ md5sum j903/system/util/pacman.ijs

$ find j903 -name pacman.ijs
j903/system/util/pacman.ijs
j903/addons/ide/qt/pacman.ijs
j903/addons/ide/jnet/util/pacman.ijs
$ find j903 -name pacman.ijs | xargs grep vsuffix=
j903/system/util/pacman.ijs:vsuffix=. ('Darwin'-:UNAME){::'so.9.03';'9.03.dylib'
I would first check that your copy of system/util/pacman.ijs is valid.
If it is, something odd is going on, perhaps with scope. Possible
workarounds would include changing vsuffix=. to vsuffix=: or assigning
vsuffix_z_ or using J's debugger to inspect the point of failure
I hope this helps,
