   IIRC, this is problem springs from HFS+ being case-insensitve;
somewhere (I don't remember where) two files with the same name but
different cases are in the same directory, and the first gets
clobbered by the second.

   I got around this by building on a UFS filesystem, since I happen
to have one around.  If you don't, you might be able to make a R/W UFS
diskimage and build on that.

   If you ever get MOL-on-OSX actually working, let me know. :-)
