What is your environment like? The Tutorial steps run on all of our
CMake dashboards, and we have several "Unix Makefiles" dashboards
running on various Macs. We do not see this error anywhere...

Do you have CC and/or CXX set to something?

Do you have a non-traditional or self-built compiler installed in your
environment?

MacPorts / Fink / some other non-Apple compiler? Or just Xcode tools?
(And what version of Xcode and Mac OS X?)
