[Rivet] ruvet and osx

[Andy Buckley]

Hi Sabah,
I have no idea about compilation with GCC 8 -- it looks like our "autotools" build system assumes that a compiler flag will work, but GCC 8 has removed it. I suspect that new versions of autotools would fix it, but of course our existing tarball is built with an older version.

You could try building the (final) Rivet step by hand, first rebuilding the autotools bits with a call to "autoreconf -i". It may even be possible to re-run the bootstrap script after doing that, and let it finish the build with the updated Makefiles.
