The snapshot generation process is running, but seems to be having an
error compiling the linker, so nothing else can be done:

In file included from /usr/include/string.h:630,
                 from /home/sdcc-builder/build/sdcc-
build/orig/sdcc/sdas/linksrc/aslink.h:35,

Looks like a conflict between the system strndup() function and the
locally defined strndup() function that is no longer conditionally
defined but instead always defined.

I'll look at this when I have more time later this week.

This is likely a hardware fault. I have noticed that this system keeps
turning itself off for no apparent reason. I'll look more closely after
I check the other Apple system.
