Well as to the second question as I said fresh install and just  
installed XCode from the disk. I had forgotten to check by software  
update if it was all the way updated (I updated everything before  
installing it so had forgotten) and there were no new updates so I'm  
assuming that means its fully updated.

Yep, that was spot on. Several things that weren't being detected are  
all detected fine now. Just need another #ifdef in the configure  
script now.

I have one other independent issue, but I'll create a new topic for  
that.

Thanks,
Ergzay
