[Phylobase-devl] New phylobase build approach using static libncl (Was: Rcpp and OS X compiliation)

[Peter Cowan]

It appears to be building fine with Mac OS X (i386 & x86_64).  I agreed the commingled approach is the way to go.  I think this will suit the needs of our users best.  In fact, I tried it months ago but didn't have success, so I thank you for your efforts!

From my understanding, we don't need all of the source files for our NCL commands.  Down the road, we might be able to clean things up a little.  For example the nxsdistancedatum.cpp file is empty and nxsemptyblock.cpp appears not to be used either.

Cheers

Peter
