            There's a patch in log4cxx's tickets/DM-2581 branch.

            This builds fine on my laptop (OS X Yosemite) & on lsst-dev. However, on Yosemite I get quite a few failures in the test suite, most notably a segfault in streamtestcase. I note that we don't actually run the tests because they are too unreliable and that there's an upstream issue regarding segfaults in this test, so I don't know how much to worry about this. I don't intend to burn more time debugging this package unless we know there's a problem.

            Also: I don't know how eupspkg applies patches. I guessed following the examples that are already there, but I might've screwed up. Hopefully it's an easy tweak if so,

            Thanks! Okay lets hurry this one in, as it only affects the Mac and the build is clean on buildbot

            For completeness, homebrew use the same patch to get things built on Yosemite: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/Library/Formula/log4cxx.rb

            The upstream failure of streamtestcase referenced earlier was noted back in 2008 for MinGW but has had no activity since then.
