Comment 1 for bug 1542867

This problem may still exist, but I have circumvented it by removing the xcode tools from my tool chain and building with gcc and friends installed from macports. A true solution for compatibility would be to try to work around the --build-dir option, but, the easiest solution is to work around the problem. This works for me because I've adopted the macports package manager, but it may not work for others who use homebrew or other.

For now, since no one else has reported it, and it no longer affects me, I suggest we either close it, or make it low priority and put it at the end of the list to be dealt with in the future.
