Same error in Webkit, see attached.  I wondered what "pull the latest gnucash-on-mac" meant; I thought starting from scratch would do that anyway.

There are two repositories involved: http://git.gnome.org/gtk-osx and https://github.com/jralls/gnucash-on-osx. The latter has the moduleset and .jhbuildrc-custom specific to building GnuCash.  I'd forgotten that the .jhbuildrc-custom there uses the gnucash.modules directly from the repo, so you're OK, there's nothing more to download.

The supposed fix for the webkit problem isn't working, though. It's supposed to add -stdlib=libstdc++ to the CXXFLAGS. If you know your way around configure well enough you can try adding it by hand; otherwise I won't have time to look at it again until Thursday.
