I have never used mac osx so that I have been quiet anticipating that mac user 
will reply.

The error you met happened during compiling. It is possible that fortran code 
induced compiling bug. I am not sure but changing compiling option might change 
the situation. 

First please observe

mkoctfile -p FFFLAGS

and observe what is compiling flags for gfortran. After that change compiling 
flags using setenv command like 

setenv("FFFLAGS", "(modified options)")

-fPIC flag cannot be changed.

The optimization flag is candidate.

As first try, omit -Os flag.
