[Aide] building 0.13.1 on Mac OS X

Hi,

Has anyone got AIDE 0.13 running on a Mac? I can't configure it and
it's not in the MacPorts tree (which is a FreeBSD-like ports tree, but
even easier to use). I have not specified any compiler options and am
not a developer, so I don't know how to troubleshoot this (sorry!).
But I am running Apple's XCode 2.4 (with GCC) on OS X 10.4.10, and can
compile other security tools like nmap without any problems.

I thought maybe someone has already gone through this and has an easy fix.

Here's my configure output. I'm not attaching my config.log because
it's too big for a mailing list. Anyway, if you have some thoughts on
what I should do, please let me know.
