If you mean the m4wrap junk character problem, then I see it on a
darwin 1.3.  Delete the line

        m4wrap(`m4wrap_string')

from mpn/asm-defs.m4 if you get an error about "Junk character -1".

Configure needs darwin added next to rhapsody, per below.  The next
release will have a test for what form the assembler demands.
