Right - though the ISIS build on the scoreboard appears to be on a
PowerPC Mac, not an x86, it _shouldn't_ make much difference. As Adam
and Johnny indicated, using traditional build will probably get you
further.
Mac OS X is one of the platforms we have partial commitment for adding
full support on ACE - if you'd be interested in adding to that
commitment, maybe we can get OS X building clean out of the box in
short order.
Thanks,
