Compilation failing on macOS about lucet

[jedisct1]

Hi,

And thanks for your feedback!

The macOS port (and actually, making Lucet work outside the Docker environment) is still a work in progress.

make install should not be used outside this environment, and there is more than just fixing the readlink issue to have it work.

For example setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH doesn't do anything on macOS.

I'll eventually make a Homebrew tap to properly install Lucet on macOS.

This will be fixed as soon as #138 lands. If you have time, could you check out that branch and see that its fixed there?

Using that branches looks like it works

make -C lucet-builtins
cc --std=gnu99 -Ofast -Wall -Werror -march=native -fPIC -I../lucet-runtime/include -c src/memcpy.c -o build/memcpy.o
cc --std=gnu99 -Ofast -Wall -Werror -march=native -fPIC -I../lucet-runtime/include -c src/memmove.c -o build/memmove.o

# -U is not supported by the GNU linker. Retry without this option if the first command fails.

        cc -shared build/memcpy.o build/memmove.o build/strcasecmp.o build/strchr.o build/strcmp.o build/strlen.o -o build/libbuiltins.so

make install or sudo helpers/install.sh generates the following error.
