This is a function that is not yet fully implemented in the
platforms sources. When building a Linux VM, I added the
following as a workaround (I don't know if this will work
for OS X):

/* A default implementation for unix */
sqInt sqGetFilenameFromString(char *aCharBuffer, char *aFilenameString,
    sqInt filenameLength, sqInt aBoolean) {
  strncpy(aCharBuffer, aFilenameString, filenameLength);
  aCharBuffer[filenameLength] = 0;
}
