The build process involves heavy use of shell scripts and makefiles, relying on Apple’s developer tools, the Mac OS X/Darwin BSD layer, and other open source development software. The compiler currently in use is Apple’s version of gcc2, and all debugging must be done from the command line with gdb. Build support for gcc3 is still in progress at this time.
