 Hi. I finally got around to compile pidgin-mtn on a mac, but some changes
 were needed:

  - in autogen.sh, libtoolize isn't available on Mac OS X, we've got to use
 glibtoolize
  - also in autogen.sh we should probably add /opt/local/share/aclocal/ to
 the m4 search list for running aclocal, since it's the correct default
 directory for macports.
  - msgfmt isn't found even when it's in $PATH, (in my default macports
 installation it's in /opt/local/bin/msgfmt) so $MSGFMT and $GMSGFMT fail
 to be set correctly.

 This lighttpd changeset might be useful:
