[James Overly]

Hi all -

I am trying to build on osx El Capitain (I get the same error on osx
Mavericks as well).

Using cmake I am passing the following switches:

${BUILD_DIR}/../cmake-3.2.1/bin/cmake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=ON
   -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES:STRING="x86_64" \

   -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS:STRING="-DFTGL_USE_NAMESPACE" \

Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.
