I was able to generate the configuration files by installing the latest autoconf, automake, and libtool using darwinports and by modifying bootstrap file somewhat
./configure generated the Makefiles as it should.
However, it failed in the make process.
What version of wxwidgets is required?
My wxwidgets is installed using darwinports, it is version 2.6.3.
The first error was in that wxUSleep was not declared.
