"./configure --help" gives me (on linux, but this should be no issue) 
among other things:
"--with-pd-dir=path    pd header path (default=/usr/local/include)"

because osX is not only post-os9 but also a unix system.
and on unix, things should go into /usr/lib, or rather /usr/local/lib if 
you install it by hand.

but of course it would be cool to offer a configure-option to the user 
"who knows better" for the installation path.
