In Mac OS X: /usr/include/cytpe.h has:

#define _A 0x00000100L /* Alpha */

In matrixMat.h/.cpp _A is used as a formal parameter for
one function. As you can imagine, this causes an error
when compiling matrixMat.cpp.

The fix (for now) is just to rename _A to A_. Actually, any
renaming will work.

It might be smarter to name the formal parameter "A"
instead, and use a different name for the
temporary variable in the bidiagonalize() method.
