Request: add Mac OS 9 support

[programmingkidx]

I really find cpptrace to be useful. I was debugging a program on Mac OS 9 when it occurred to me that if I had a stacktrace, I would know where exactly my problem is located. Is it possible you could add support for Mac OS 9 please?

Note: I use a project called Retro68 to build C++ 11 programs for Mac OS 9 and under. It is located here: https://github.com/autc04/Retro68

Hi,
I’d be willing to support macos 9. I can look into this at some point or would welcome contributions.

Did you try building the library on macos 9? What issues did you observe?

[programmingkidx]

I have not tried building the library on Mac OS 9. I assumed it would not work.

While I haven’t tested with macos 9 personally and don’t test it in ci cpptrace does have pretty good support for older compilers. There’s a good chance it works as-is.

I would try but I don't know how to build it on Mac OS 9. The closest directions are for Mac OS X and up. These two operating systems are very different in architecture.
