[Udpcast] UDPCast on OSX

[Jeff Michels]

Hello Donald,

Thank you for your reply.  Here is the output I get:

cc -Wall -Wshadow -DBB_FEATURE_UDPCAST_FEC -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DUSE_SYSLOG -DNO_BB   -c -o socklib.o socklib.c

socklib.c: In function 'mcastOp':

Thank you for your help,

I suggest posting the actual error you got when you
tried to make the udpcast binaries.  It could be
an ordinary dependancy or lib you don't have.  Usually
the last 6 to 10 lines from a make error tell the tale
of what went wrong.

I've built udpcast on Sun with Linux, so I don't think
there is anything x86 centric about it.
