Hi

I tried your instructions above in Snow Leopard but still got the following
error. Can you help?

What do you mean by "forcing the ac_cv_prog_egrep variable to a good value"?

[...]
g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I..  -I.. -I../source/base -I../source/frontend
-I../unix -I../libraries/png -I../libraries/tiff/libtiff
-I../libraries/tiff/libtiff -I../libraries/jpeg   -pipe -Wno-multichar -O3
-march=i686 -mtune=i686 -minline-all-stringops -m32 -c -o tiff_pov.o `test -f
'tiff_pov.cpp' || echo './'`tiff_pov.cpp
In file included from tiff_pov.cpp:44:

directory
make[3]: *** [tiff_pov.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

I do have libtiff installed by fink.
> fink list libtiff
