Basic chdk compilation question

I'm trying to compile a version of the CHDK on Mac OS X. I've installed gcc and arm-elf-gcc according to the wiki page, http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Compiling_CHDK_under_Mac_OS_X, but I suspect I messed up somewhere.

When I attempt to build CHDK using "make fir", I get the following error:
Code: [Select]
**** Build: 1.1.0
>> Entering to tools
>> Entering to tools/elf2flt
elf-arm.c -> elf-arm.o
elf-arm.c:9:20: error: malloc.h: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [elf-arm.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
Does anybody know what the cause of this might be? Thank you very much!

This is attempting to build one of the tools used to build chdk modules, so it is problem with your host compiler settings rather than the ARM toolchain.

A quick google suggests that malloc.h isn't a standard include on OSX https://www.google.com/search?q=malloc.h+osx

You can try just commenting out the #include <malloc.h> lines in the affected files

edit:
In changesets 2596 (trunk) / 2597 (release-1_1) I've removed the references to malloc.h. malloc() is defined in stdlib.h, malloc.h should only be needed for some other less standard functions that we don't use.

Don't forget what the H stands for.
