Linking error on OS X

[jon-torodash]

I searched the closed and outstanding issues concerning the build process and didn't find anything related, but my apologies in advance if this is a known error.

I'm trying to compile on Darwin (10.6) and running into trouble at the linking phase, with a segmentation fault on ld (as called from collect2) at utest-neumann. Here is the output (for the sake of readability, CF3 == path to CF3):

This is as verbose as I can reproduce the error so far.
The core dump file is a hefty 326MB and not much help.
I did not see any OS X build-specific information in the docs. Is there any known issue?

This being a segfault of the linker, it is clearly a bug there. That said, I think this might be caused by linking in too many trilinos libraries, you might try with a more limited configuration as in the install-deps script:
