Could you send me this command off-list?  I want to run it on the  
macosx104-powerpc, which currently does not have an externally  
accessible IP.

Ah, ok, Mac OS X is a bit weird since it doesn't have its own package  
management.  We use Fink on the build machines, and Fink installs into  
its own path: /sw.  So to get lots of tools and libraries, Fink needs  
to be added to the relevant paths.  So for the PATH for buildbot,  
it'll need /sw/bin.  You can see in the Makefiles, the include path is  
set using -I/sw/include and lib path using -L/sw/lib.
