I know that Apple decided to change its gcc but are we talking about running
MIRA on native OS X or using MacPorts?
I had trouble with MacPorts Boost package about 6 months ago and gave up using
MIRA on Macs. It never occurred to me NOT to use MacPorts.
But, assembling on a Mac is an exercise in patience so I really only compile
MIRA to use convert_project and some other tools, not the assembler itself.

PS I'm still trouble-shooting with regards to the SFF file corruption problem
that I reported last week. Some of you asked me to report on the outcome.
Preliminary tests indicate that SFFs generated natively on a 454 sequencer
using the 2.5p1 version of Roche's software are not compatible with versions
2.5p3, 2.6 or Mira. This is still being worked out so I could still be wrong.
But that's where I am heading right now.
