Hi all (and @sweaglesw),

I am using a Macbook Pro with an M4 Max chip and macOS Tahoe 26.1. I downloaded the Mac OS X 64-bit Ready-to-Run ACE binary from ACE: the Answer Constraint Engine . When running the Matrix Dev Regression tests, I get an error of “mmap didn’t put the freezer where I wanted it: Undefined error: 0”. How might I fix this and what version of Ace should I be using?

For Apple silicon you should use https://sweaglesw.org/linguistics/ace-0.9.34-m1-test . This is a special version of the 64-bit Intel ACE binary that works properly with Apple’s Rosetta 2 emulator.

Thank you!
