I'm not sure what would cause this, but I did want to check
if the above output had a copy-n-paste error in it. The
"../../parrot -o perl6.pbc perl6.pir" command appears to be
joined with the previous one, which doesn't appear normal to me.
Yes, I'm clutching at straws for this one. Unfortunately I don't
have a mac on which I could test this. The error message
("...argument count mismatch in main...") is also a little
bizarre, which makes me wonder if it's something about the
makefile that is the source of the problem.

You might also try 'make realclean' here instead of a simple
"make clean". Some of the revisions in-and-around 27376 were
having trouble with Makefiles and clean targets being performed
properly. Actually, if you could try it again using a fresh
checkout, that might be even better. There were a few times
over the past couple of days where we were having to do fresh
checkouts because 'make clean' and 'make realclean' weren't
doing their thing.
Thanks!
