I don't have any experience with Macos10, I can only repleat what Guy
reported earlier: The gtk1 libs that he was using were not built for
dynmaic linking. If the libs come from a standard source (Apple, Fink),
then you are likely to be using the same set of libs. He "fixed" that
problem by installing and using gtk2. Maybe you can have a look at
the list archives to find out what he did.

--disable-shared implies --enable-static. --enable-static today tries
to build a *completely* static binary. NO dynamic libs whatsoever.
This, btw hasn't been working on my Suse for more than a year because
of some glibc trouble.

The best way to go on Macos is probably to switch to gtk2. See above.
I can try to fix the all-static build within the next few days, but
certainly not today. Another point is, that I can try to make it
work on Suse 9.0, but not on Macos as I lack a system to test on.

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
