Building and installing HHVM on OSX 10.8

As of yet, HHVM does not completely work on OSX. This page serves as a work in progress for getting it partially working.

Packages installation

Install homebrew.

Install the following packages with homebrew:

brew tap homebrew/dupes
brew install gettext cmake git libtool mcrypt glog oniguruma re2c autoconf libelf readline automake mysql pcre gd icu4c libmemcached mysql-connector-c pkg-config tbb boost imagemagick mysql-connector-c++ binutils ncurses curl

Install GCC:

brew tap homebrew/versions
brew install --enable-cxx --use-llvm gcc47

Install some packages that are not (yet) part of homebrew:

brew install https://gist.github.com/danslo/5841970/raw/9177250ed1a7466f0acf3147c9c1ca0ff8ab233b/cclient.rb \
    https://gist.github.com/danslo/5621394/raw/7826e6046bf77bea549265099c306debfcbe6b04/libdwarf.rb \
    https://gist.github.com/danslo/5841552/raw/12e593ac59478feb42ed435e30a18e269f2891a5/libeventfb.rb \
    https://gist.github.com/danslo/5881669/raw/8c5a05e01e89604a2e8af5fa25482e025a85b44f/boostfb.rb \

Downgrade libmemcached due to this bug.

cd /usr/local
git checkout e029db5 Library/Formula/libmemcached.rb
brew unlink libmemcached
brew install libmemcached
brew switch libmemcached 1.0.4

Getting HipHop source-code
