Btw, the names of the OSX configurations are kind of confusing:
        darwin-4.2.1		- the last release of gcc from Apple (gcc-4.2.1)
        clang-darwin-4.2.1	- the current release of clang from Apple, using the libstdc++ from gcc 4.2.1
        clang-darwin-11  	- the current release of clang from Apple, with -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++
