If it will help, I sent the output to a text file which is pasted 
below.  I'm experimenting with the build on a Titanium Powerbook 
running OS X 10.2.5 Jaguar, compiling from a tcsh shell.  I'm running 
xibuild under my user login, but su root makes no difference - I get 
the same output.  As the output notes;

"If the ANSI C compile command is wrong, you will have to modify the
'c' scripts in these directories:
     /Users/chris/desktop/xitami-24d9/src/sfl, 
/Users/chris/desktop/xitami-24d9/src/smt"

however, the gcc C compiler in Darwin/OS X is the same one used in 
Linux or BSD, so I would assume nothing has to be changed in that 
respect.

Welcome to the Xitami web server, copyright (c) 1991-99 iMatix.
This script will compile and link XITAMI, ready for use on this
Darwin system.  Nothing is installed in any system directories.
Please confirm this information:
     System . . . . . .: Darwin
     ANSI C compiler. .: cc -c  -DDEBUG

If the ANSI C compile command is wrong, you will have to modify the
