      mongodb 3.0.0 and 3.0.1 do not compile on Mac OS X 10.6. The error is:

      src/mongo/bson/bsonelement.h:485:35: error: use of undeclared identifier 'strnlen'
                    size_t size = strnlen( fieldName(), maxLen - 1 );
                                  ^

      The problem is that strnlen was added to OS X in version 10.7, so to compile on previous systems you must either not use strnlen or must provide a compatibility implementation of it.
