Yep, I got exactly the same thing using the OpenJDK 7 binaries. I haven¹t tried using the Soylatte binaries yet. gcc --version: i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465) OS 10.5.4 iMac with Core 2 Duo It appears to be javac that is complaining, but I also can¹t find any details about the problem in any of the output. -- Lachlan O'Dea CA Principal Software Engineer tel: +61 3 9944 6674 fax: +61 3 9944 6599 mobile: +61 412 390 650 odela01@ca.com "Facts are meaningless.

I have followed the build instructions (as best I can) but I am using the OpenJDK 7 binaries instead of the Soylatte binaries. Steps I have done. 1. installed the OpenJDK binaries - put this in my path to ensure that it works 2. Upgraded to XCode 3.1 3. Installed the plugins (untarred) 4. unset my JAVA_HOME 5. Run the make command changing the ALT_BOOTDIR and ALT_BINARY_PLUGS_PATH I am running this on a Quad Core 64 bit OS X. I saw in the archive that the 64 bit build may not work. So, is this an issue that the build does not work on 64 OS X? Or that I cannot use the OpenJDK to bootstrap?
