Hi Dave,

The ECLiPSe Mac OS X x86 binaries from SourceForge are built on Mac OS 10.6.

The single error message you have given is not enough to show what might 
be going wrong. In particular, I am not sure if the problem is caused by 
compiling on 10.8. I can't really tell where exactly the error message 
is from, and what exactly configure did. Is there a libeclipse.dylib (it 
should be in Kernel/x86_64_macosx directory)? If not, there should have 
been some earlier error when the building of libeclipse.dylib  failed.

You don't seem to have set ECLiPSETHIRDPARTY environment variable for
your build, and this probably means that few third-party components will 
be used for your build (configure should report what it was able to 
find). For ECLiPSe 6.0 onwards, we strongly recommend that you build 
ECLiPSe with at least bignum support, i.e. with GNU GMP (or GMP 
compatible lib -- for x86 Macs I use MPIR instead of GMP), because 
without bignums, the new ECLiPSe compiler can only compile clauses with 
limited number of variables, and some of ECLiPSe's own files cannot be 
compiled). However, I don't think this is the direct cause of your 
error, as your error seem to be happening earlier than this.

Cheers,

Kish
