Description

[Allison Naaktgeboren :ally]

NB: while this is technically on windows, 
while mbrubeck did patch to allow elm to build on non windows platforms, mac was apparently not tested.[1]  

I showed it to :gps, who is a build peer, who said 'uh, they broke make'

I am having the same bug.  Anyone know how to resolve it so I can get my build working?

Comment 2

[Daniel Holbert [:dholbert]]

Why is this under metro?  This looks like it's in webrtc code.

Comment 3

[Matt Brubeck (:mbrubeck)]

We did a mass-move of bugs into the new Firefox for Metro product and probably caught some things we shouldn't have.

Using Xcode 4.5.1 with Command Line tools installed on Mac OS X 10.7.5

Comment 5

[Alex Keybl [:akeybl]]

Release builds are unaffected, therefore this doesn't track for release. What's the last revision that people were able to build successfully?

Comment 6

[Matt Brubeck (:mbrubeck)]

This is only on the "elm" branch with the Metro Firefox UI enabled.  As far as I know this has never worked on OS X.  (Building Metro on OS X is not a supported configuration; it's just something we'd like to enable for developers if possible.)

Comment 7

[Jason Smith [:jsmith]]

Don't think this is worth doing a regression window on.

Comment 8

[Ryan VanderMeulen [:RyanVM]]

Metro support was removed.
