Stock XSD 3.3.0 doesn't recognize Clang. However, there is a patch that
adds this support:

http://www.codesynthesis.com/~boris/tmp/xsd/xsd-3.3.0-gcc-4.7-clang.patch

Simply apply it to stock xsd-3.3.0 binary distribution like this:

cd xsd-3.3.0-i686-macosx
patch -p1 <.../xsd-3.3.0-gcc-4.7-clang.patch

After that everything should build and run without any issues.
