I would like to report a broken build on Mac OS X using cross compiler powerpc-elf version 4.0.2 using binutils 2.16.1 and newlib 1.13.0. I get the following error message after running configure -- host=powerpc-elf followed by a make:

grub2/commands/help.c: In function 'grub_cmd_help':
grub2/commands/help.c:42: error: nested functions are not supported on MacOSX grub2/commands/help.c:65: error: nested functions are not supported on MacOSX
make: *** [grub_emu-commands_help.o] Error 1
console:~/opensource/bootcode/source asmith$


Fair warning, I am new to the list and GRUB2 source code. I wanted to report this to the list first, to see if anyone was aware and/or working on this issue. I am interested in getting GRUB2 to work on the Mac in an effort to support porting efforts of OpenSolaris on Apple hardware. Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Andre
