Do any empirical IO folks on here have a working implementation of the BBL algorithm ([Victor Aguirregabiria's Website - Computer Code](https://sites.google.com/view/victoraguirregabiriaswebsite/computer-code)) ?

- I did download the BBL code from there
- I now have GAUSS25. Erm…yeah.
- I find it very hard to compile the `x86_64` C library which they plug into it on my M1 macbook (which is ARM). I mean, I got a [toolchain](https://github.com/SergioBenitez/homebrew-osxct) which seems to run, but I still get `'/Users/floswald/Downloads/bajari_benkard_levin/libwproc.so' (not a mach-o file)`
- trying to run their code seems impossible. any hints? anyone ever seen a julia version of that?
