Doesn't compile properly on Mac OSX

[GoogleCodeExporter]

First, whether you do these defines, or not

 #DEFINE __APPLE__ 
 #DEFINE __MACH__

inside of configs.h

and then do a "make", you still get the same error message.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Mac OS X 10.7.3

Please provide any additional information below.

I applied the patches manually. I think they took; however, still get errors, 
but different ones.  Appears related to a missing file?  See below:

It's because OSX does NOT have "mtd/mtd-user.h".
I think you can use the headers from your target's toolchain.
In the future release, I will think whether these are required or not!

Dear :

Would you try adding the attached file "yaffs2utils_mtd.h" into src, and 
patching the "fix_osx_broken_mtd_h.pach". If it can solve your problem, I will 
add them into the next release.

Thanks a lot!

Dear ronaldj100:

Any repose?

The latest version on the trunk contains patches in this issue.
It fix the loff_t issue on MAC OSX, and it use "yaffs2utils_mtd.h" as the 
replacement of "mtd/mtd-user.h" on the MAC OSX. I hope the new version can 
solve your problem.

I would be glad to receive any response.

Thanks a lot.
