Thanks Dan, for what it's worth I just built and installed alpine with
practically no problems on a Quad PPC and on an i386 MacBookPro (both
running 10.5.7). They are both working like a charm! I'll try with a

Just for reference, the reason pine-ssl doesn't build is that its bizarre build system is hard-coded to link to libldap.a instead of - lldap for some inexplicable reason. openldap23 hasn't built a static library for some time and therefore pine-ssl won't build without extensive patching.
