Hi,

It seems to me that recent versions of Hans Boehm's GC supports MacOS X.
They are available at

    http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Hans_Boehm/gc/gc_source/

Try to build with one of them and let me know if it works. MacOS X port
of OpenC++ would be very welcome.

Please work on the latest version of sources from CVS. Let me know if any
issues.

Regards
Grzegorz

PS: If this does not work, however, there is possibly a way to get rid of
GC at all with help of boost::shared_ptr<>.
