[mcclim-devel] Re: Beagle backend requirements?

[Duncan Rose]

Further to this, I can report no problems observed on 10.2 running with 
OpenMCL 0.14.3 (from the 'distributions' link on Clozure.com, not 
bleeding edge from CVS or whatever) so I suspect this may be a problem 
that's specific to Tiger.

Sorry not to be more helpful, but I don't have access to a box running 
10.4 :-(
