Hi, I changed the status to active because I still see this bug on
OS X.
Someone who follows me on Twitter saw it too. We're both on OS X.
intmath.st fails, rockets to 99+% CPU, and hangs forever. make
install,
and running GNU Smalltalk from the command line, succeed anyway.
MacPorts gives an error message if you try to install GNU
Smalltalk via
the port package manager, saying it's unavailable for Intel Macs,
which
in 2009 means most Macs, but in fact mine's Intel and it's running
fine. At least, it handles "Hello world!" and the interactive
console.
Giles, I installed gst via MacPorts w/o an error message and have
run both
that version and ones from built from source without issue. I'm using
10.5.6.
I just ran intmath.st in less than 10 seconds with both the MacPorts
version
and my built from source version.
Are you on something earlier than 10.5.6?
