Hey all,

Was just wondering if there is any active work/solution/workaround for
having buildroot on Mac OS X.

Thanks,

Angirasa

We have received patches in the past, but to my knowledge no
developers are actively using macosx - What problems are you seing

They are mainly related to the compilation of ulibc gcc and to my best
knowledge are there because of use of glibc.

The Mac OS X libs are not compatible with glibc usage it seems.
Following are the exact errors after I force it to use the Mac OS X
library.
