I realised that you're trying to build Insight for debugging Mac OS X
applications. There are some peculiarities about Mac OS X, e.g., the
use of Mach-O object files instead of ELF object files due to
Darwin's Mach heritance. Apple keeps modified versions of gcc and gdb
at www.opensource.apple.com, and I don't think that these
modifications are considered in Insight. I can't think of any other
operating system that still uses Mach-O besides Mac OS X.
Cheers,
Hermann
