That was indeed the case, my bad. Apparently the instructions weren't 
100% foolproof ;)

I did not know about the "wee" branch, because I was not aware of it. If 
I remember correctly, Anthony Cowley neither notified me, nor the 
language-c mailing list.
What do you mean by "make sure language-c works"? Patches for dealing 
with Apple extensions used in the system headers? That would be great, I 
recently switched to OS X 10.9 as well, and noticed the problem with 
non-standard attribute syntax, for example.

Sure, I'll take care of updating, and look at the patches if I can find 
them.
Again, thanks a lot for taking care of this issue.

cheers, benedikt
