It's there, although it's in line 338 ;-)

Hmm, I was looking in another revision GNUMakefile...

Anyhow, I did some further digging (r3058 this time) and noticed that
in Oolite.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj the Universe.m file has
$SNAPSHOT_MACROS in its COMPILER_FLAGS section. This is the only
file where this variable is used. It became more interesting when I saw that
this is defined in src/Cocoa/oolite-snapshot.xcconfig as an empty string. :?: :!: :?:

And that is exactly when I realized that this is far beyond my league!
I'll go with a_c's opinion... and better wait for a MAC person.

At least I tried...

Thanks for giving it a shot! I'll investigate in that direction...

I found out what causes the problem: It is indeed a result of $SNAPSHOT_MACROS being defined as "", thanks Getafix. If I put some compiler option like -Dmaik in there it works.

The comments in the file say that this is overwritten by some nightly Mac script. Is this something that I have to do? Leaving -Dmaik as $SNAPSHOT_MACROS is certainly not the way it was intended I guess ;-)

Cheers,
