not yet, but as i now finally own a mac i will give it a try

There were some other errors but I have fixed
those.

can you send me the diffs?

This error seems to be coming from the call to gobble at line 156
of buildconfig from PHP version 4.3.7.

 Please take such issues to Apple.  If they provide
 substandard tools in a completely new OS, it is their duty to
 improve the quality of their toolset.  It makes no sense
 whatsoever that every opensource project works around their
 deficiencies.

Do you mean 'buildconf' ??
If so, try updateing your auto tools to newer versions. I have OSX10.2 with
autoconf 2.52 and libtool 1.5 -- running ./buildconf --force in a freshly
un-tarred 4.3.7 release works great.

http://us4.php.net/manual/en/faq.build.php may have some info on the
autoconf versions you'll need.
