At least on MacOSX 10.9 it seems to work equally good/bas as the old code:

* seems to work fine with hfst-ospell on its own
* crashes voikkospell with the same error:

$ voikkospell -l -p tools/spellcheckers/fstbased/hfst/
libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type hfst_ol::ZHfstXmlParsingError
Abort trap: 6
