Comment (by carter):

 heatsink is likely to follow up on this, but GCC 4.2  lacks the builtin
 clear cache primitive, and thus any OS X system with XCode < 5 has a GCC
 old enough that builtin___clear_cache shoudn't be used.

 (at least if we want to support working at all on older OS X systems,
 which i think is worth doing)
