...moving on, I found that config.guess and config.sub were outta  
date (how often are they "released"?), so there are new ones in cvs  
that now recognize "powerpc-apple-darwin8.0.0", which is 10.4 (and I  
assume, therefore, that they'll be fine for earlier osx's)...so now  
I'm doing and getting the following:

tiggity:~/puredataDev/Gem/src/gnu tigital$ ./configure --

OpenGL is mandatory
tiggity:~/puredataDev/Gem/src/gnu tigital$

...obviously, I'd like to figure out a way to conditionally look  
for:  X11 stuff (would be nice to choose between x11 or aqua as the  
window interface, at least for pd itself), OpenGL & Quicktime  
frameworks (and others should they be needed later...), and finally  
the different mpegs/quicktimes/whatever libs, so that if someone  
wanted to they could not be forced to use just the built in quicktime  
framework...

...so I tried the following (derived from the pd configure.in):

if test `uname -s` == Darwin;
then
...
fi

...but it still does the "checking for GL/gl.h... no":  is  
indentation/formatting important in these configure.in's?  Or is this  
related to the errors at the beginning of the process having to do  
with "uname"?

help!
