[CMake] Fail to Compile cmake on OSX 10.4

[Olivier Cessenat]

Hello,

I downloaded cmake-2.8.4 and also cmake-2.8.3 "Unix sources" and tried
to compile it for Mac OS-X 10.4.

I get the following error:

It used to be OK with 2.8.0.

Is there anything I missed ?
If I do a "make VERBOSE=1" I get:

I need a new release for visit 2.2.1.

Thanks for your help, I'm stuck right now.
