Right - you might have to add something like this to configure.in:

*** configure.in	20 Oct 2001 06:27:48 -0000	1.236
--- configure.in	22 Oct 2001 06:38:39 -0000
***************
*** 706,711 ****
--- 706,715 ----
  				PICFLAG="+z"
  			fi
  		;;
+ 		*darwin*)
+ 			AC_DEFINE(DARWIN)
+ 			LDFLAGS="-flat_namespace"
+ 		;;
  		*qnx*) AC_DEFINE(QNX);;
  		*osf*) AC_DEFINE(OSF1)
  			BLDSHARED="true"

I haven't tried this (no access to a darwin machine) so you may
have to fiddle with it yourself to get it to actually work.
