Compiling TeX Live on 10.5 (was: libatomic build failure 10.5/x86)

Wed Apr 25 14:37:49 UTC 2018

I don't think I did anything special, and texlive-bin installed for me on 10.5 PPC without complaint.

That said, on 10.6 Intel there's an issue with objc++ compiling, where the OBJCXXFLAGS requires "-fpermissive" to get over some untyped enum issues in some security framework. I had 'port' use the defaults for compiler & other settings, and with a small tweak to the Portfile the port builds correctly now. I'll do a PR for this fix soon-ish. Maybe this is the issue with GCC6?
