Hi,

I am trying to compile the 3.1.4_OSE tarball on Snow Leopard.

The instructions at
http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Mac%20OS%20X%20build%20instructions links to
page with a binary version of Qt4 compiled for i386. However, the default
target architecture in Snow Leopard is 64-bit.

So I went ahead and did a 'sudo port install qt4-mac', went back into the
Virtual Box 3.1.4 directory and:

$ ./configure --disable-hardening --with-openssl-dir=/opt/local/
--with-qt4-dir=/opt/local/Library/
...
$ kmk
[...]

It looks like the command line flags refer to 10.5's SDK and the build
process ends up confused about which version of libSystem to link against.
Any help?
