[Insight-users] ITK build fails on big endian test on OS X 10.8.3/Intel

[Bradley Lowekamp]

Hello Sohail,

Some changes have been made to the way GCC_XML is build since 4.3.2. Can you give 4.4rc1 a try?

Also what compiler are you using? This version of gcc on OSX is know to have some problems:

$ gcc --version
i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-gcc-4.2 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.11.00)

You should try to compile ITK with clang.

Brad
