Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Error on OSX in latest VOLK

[Michael Dickens]

Yes: gcc 4.2.1.  Apple is transitioning from pure gcc to using llvm / clang, so 
maybe they'll keep those more up to date?  XCode 4.3.2 (latest) provides gcc 
4.2.1 using llvm / clang (3.0), which is the latest release of those.  llvm / 
clang 3.1 is coming out soon, it looks like; so, we'll see.  In the mean time, 
I'm stuck with Apple's gcc 4.2.1 variant.  So, I'm sure there's a way to make 
it work with what VOLK is trying to do; but, that's an SEP < 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somebody_Else's_Problem > both since I don't have 
time right now and that it's a little beyond my current expertise in assembly 
language programming.  Hopefully the VOLK-programmers-that-be can find a quick 
fix. - MLD
