After some attempts at compiling for Mac OS X, I'm going to gather up my knowledge. Other OS X users are more than welcome to add things based on actual successes. These notes so far are from a Linux user venturing into unknown BSD territory.
Problems with autogen.sh: Assumes Gnu libtool, but finds BSD libtool which doesn't understand --version.
Solution: Make sure your $PATH begins with /sw/bin:/sw/usr/bin or equivalent. Adding the similar bits to LD_LIBRARY_PATH may or may not be required.
Problem AM_* missing:
Solution: Make sure you have a Gnu automake installed, there's also a BSD one. Oh, and Dia 0.94 requires automake 1.7 to do distcheck, at least on Linux.
Problem: ltconfig: You must specify a host type if you use "--no-verify".
Solution: No clue. Updating config.guess and config.sub didn't work, neither did libtool1.5. These ideas from discussion at Expat ML.
Stuck for now, going to bed.
