I'm compiling on a machine with Mac OS 10.5.6
After some initial trouble getting boost to compile (my lack of reading
instructions carefully), i got povray to configure properly, but I am getting
an error when I try to build:

g++  -pipe -Wno-multichar -Wno-write-strings -fno-enforce-eh-specs -s -O3

any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

It appears you're building beta 29 (which may have been unavoidable given
the .31 unix source was only just today released). And unfortunately you'll
need to update your boost to build .31 ;(. But try it anyhow, and if you
run into the issue again, you may want to ping Yvo (see his message just
after yours) and see if he's had a similar issue.
