Does anyone have any ideas regarding this ?

Mathematica plugin for MacOSX appears to be broken.

Changed the shell script to:

This now chokes on getline (which is not a standard part of Mac OSX libc (FreeBSD based):

I have not found a workaround for this. Everywhere I read suggests the use of fgets() instead of getline(). Since my C coding skills have at least 10 years of rust, I am kind of stuck here.

What library does -lrt linker directive point to ?

I checked this, yes, it does.
