MacOS X building instructions

[abligh]

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated ... I feel I must be getting close.

Run configure with the following additional commands:
--disable-international --disable-svnversion

The former will disable building of the internationalization resources (your resultant file will still be internationalizable). --disable-svnversion will disable building a header with the svn version number in (sometimes causes problems).

The next challenge will be at link stage.

I hope after all this you aren't going to be too disappointed when it doesn't work as well as on Linux. We have some endian problems we know we need to sort out on ppc MacOS, plus (no doubt) some other issues.

I don't quite understand why you need the symbolic link: if it's finding the correct wx-config, then
wx-config --libs
(running it with the right wx-config) should return a fully specified path to the correct library.
