Building OpenBIOS on Mac OS X

[Programmingkid]

I have recently been able to go further in the build process of OpenBIOS thanks to recent changes. It stop building after forthstrap is made.

Here is the error:

HOSTCC forthstrap
  GEN   bootstrap.dict
panic: segmentation violation at 0x30061c
dict=0x100300000 here=0x100300628(dict+0x628) pc=0x0(dict+0xffd00000)
dstackcnt=0 rstackcnt=0 instruction=deadbeef
dstack: 0x0
rstack: 0x0
Writing dictionary core file
make[1]: *** [bootstrap.dict] Error 1

Anyone know how to fix this problem or know what is causing the problem?

Oh really? I didn't realise that an OS X host build was broken, but it's 
good to hear that at least you can get a bit further now. Is this from a 
vanilla SVN checkout? The only reason I ask is that when I was working 
on code patches in forth/bootstrap/bootstrap.fs, it was fairly easy to 
cause forthstrap to segfault due to coding errors.

ATB,
