I can confirm that the current NetSurf 3.0 test builds do resolve on RPCEmu
v0.8.9 on Mac OS X 10.8.3.

The i686-darwin10 builds also resolve running natively on the Mac.

(This conflict with VirtualRPC only applies to VRPC on the Mac, the NetSurf
3.0 test builds are fine with VirtualRPC on Windows 7.)
