I'm not totally familiar with how X11 coexists with fink, etc. However, in reading some of the messages from earlier installation attempts, I was prompted to remove the X11 libraries. I moved (renamed) the Apple delivered X11 libraries, and then continued my installation. A new library directory was added. Might this be a cause?
It's rather distressing to think that I can't get tetex running on my mac, and that perhaps I should just punt back to my Apple installed X11 software and use xterm from a Linux box to do my latex work.

Well, I attempted to install the xdvi package this morning, and that failed as well. This URL (http://depasquale.tcnj.edu/~depasqua/xdvi0329.txt) will take you to the full install output. Notable lines of issue include:

Tetex doesn't configure xdvik for you, because it thinks you don't have X11 installed. From your log file:
checking for X... no
At this point, I am getting
checking for X... libraries /usr/X11R6/lib, headers /usr/X11R6/include
So there must be something wrong with your installation of X11. Looking at the tetex configure script, I suspect that it is your xmkmf. Type "sh xmkmf". You should see something like
% sh xmkmf imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config imake: No such file or directory imake: No description file. Stop.
If you get something else, it is possible that your /usr/X11R6/bin/xmkmf script is corrupt (almost normal with Apple's X11).
Otherwise, you can look at the config.log file in /sw/src/tetex-2.0.2-34/tetex-src-2.0.2 and see whether there is anything interesting around the line
