[homebrew]: http://brew.sh Instructions for installing gperftools on OS X 10.9 brew install gperftools Instructions for installing gcc-4.8.3 (C++11 compatible) on OS X 10.9 brew install gcc Instructions for installing clang-3.3 (C++11 compatible) on OS X 10.9 brew install llvm --with-clang --with-asan It seems there is a bug in the implementation of `thread_local` storage specifier on clang++ and g++ on OSX. One possible workaround is to disable multi threaded support in Lean, we just have to provide the option -D MULTI_THREAD=OFF to `cmake` when creating Lean's makefiles. This option is simple, but Lean is use only one core of your system. Another option is to install Boost and provide the option -D BOOST=ON to `cmake`. This option forces Lean to use the Boost thread library instead of the standard one. To install Boost, we should use the following command brew install boost --c++11 Note that, we have to say we want the C++11 compatible version.
