[Mono-devel-list] Mono, Mac OS X & GC

I have been trying to compile Mono on Mac OS X for a while now.  I have 
even put up a little page that has been helpful to other Mono/Mac OS X 
users.

However, I have come across a little problem.  Up until now, I have 
been supplying instructions on how to install the Boehm GC, to enable 
GC on the Mac using the --with-gc=boehm autogen.sh switch.  It's been 
working fine until about a week or so ago.  Now it seems that when ever 
I compile a cvs build using that switch, the resulting mint & mcs 
binaries throw bus errors.  If I compile without the switch, everything 
works fine, but with no GC support.

Is this a known bug on PPC build?  Or should I not be installing the GC 
from source?

Thanks,

Griffin
