My guess is that darwin has some special requirements for library
section names.

Do you know what preprocessor symbols are defined to identify it as
darwin?  For example, I know gcc defines __APPLE__ on OS X.  If you can
figure it out, change line 4 of licenses-text.c to:

#if defined(__GNUC__) && !defined(WHATEVER)

replacing WHATEVER with the correct preprocessor define.  Note the '!'
before 'defined'.  If that works, let us know.  If you can't figure out
what the correct preprocessor define is, you can just change it to:

#if 0

for testing purposes.
