Folks,

One of the errors claims that local_t is undefined. According to a stackflow entry:

I had this same problem on Mac OS X. It was caused by both <xlocale.h> and <X11/Xlocale.h> using _XLOCALE_H_ as the include guard. If something included both, only one of them actually got included. To fix the problem, I edited /usr/include/X11/Xlocale.h and changed the include guard to _X11_XLOCALE_H_.

This problem was fixed upstream <http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libX11/commit/?id=d0cbf388919364fe6b5b9127f36426eb744090a0> but the fix hasn't yet made it down to Mac OS X.



This answer is dated April 17, 2011, so "fix hasn't made it down to Mac OS X" isn't all that hopeful.

I don't want to modify OS X headers, since ordinary users should be able to compile in a pinch. This may be particularly
important in the future since the MacTeX group will only support the three most recent versions of OS X.
