Somehow, some way, Zope is running on my OS X box. I don't think I did it right, but it magically worked. What I did was to *not* make any changes to the inst/do.py script as mentioned in the HOW-TO. I just left the file the way it was, and Zope compiled.

Again, I'll disclaim that I'm a newbie and don't understand the repercussions of *not* including the do('makeOPT="-traditional-cpp""') as specified in the docs. All I know is that it's pretty cool to see Zope running on Mac OS X. :-)
I haven't verified this myself, but what I was told was that the need to use -traditional-cpp was classified as a bug in the PublicBeta and the defaults were going to be changed in the final release. So I would expect that the switch is no longer required. If you're curious about the meaning of that magic option: Project Builder uses precompiled headers which use a special precompiler (which seems to have problems with some stmts) so the default was set to NOT use the "traditional cpp" . I think they got enough questions and complaints about this that they decided to make cc behave normally and let PB set its own defaults. -- Steve Majewski <sdm7g@Virginia.EDU>
