[PD] configuring Pd-vanilla on OS X

I've posted a question about Pd-extended hanging on OS X 10.8.5 after
installing some drivers, and since I can't use extended I though of
compiling some externals I often use, in vanilla. Trying to compile zexy
the following happen:
typing "./bootstrap.sh" I immediately get this error:
./bootstrap.sh: line 3: aclocal: command not found

typing "make", I get this (after some log messages):
checking m_pd.h usability... no
checking m_pd.h presence... no
checking for m_pd.h... no
configure: error: m_pd.h is desperately needed!
        install pd and/or use
        "--with-pd=</path/to/pd/>"     or
        "--includedir=</path/to/pd/src/>"

Typing './configure
"--includedir=</Applications/Pd-0.45-3.app/Contents/Resources/src/>"' (I've
included the command in single quotes, cause it contains double quotes), I
get this:
configure: error: expected an absolute directory name for --includedir:
</Applications/Pd-0.45-3.app/Contents/Resources/src/>

(Isn't the path I'm providing an absolute path?)

and typing './configure "--with-pd=</Applications/Pd-0.45-3.app/>"' I get
the same log as I get when I type "make", ending with the same error:
checking m_pd.h usability... no
checking m_pd.h presence... no
checking for m_pd.h... no
configure: error: m_pd.h is desperately needed!
        install pd and/or use
        "--with-pd=</path/to/pd/>"     or
        "--includedir=</path/to/pd/src/>"

How can I compile the library?
