Hi Malcom,
			appending the path to local.conf or prepending the path to  
bitbake.conf didn't work either. Same results. Any idea on what else I  
should look at?

Mac OS X and Linux are not too different. standard Linux C++ app can  
run file with little or no modifications on Mac OS X.

Best regards,

Elvis
