Last time I built from the source (which has been a while, admittedly, and predates the git migration), it was necessary to run ./autogen.sh in the libwpd directory before running configure. (There may or may not be a message from Fridrich in the list's archives explaining that to me.) I assume this is still the case with the git-based source tree. Also, I assume you've built the dependencies (glib, which in turn depends on pkg-config and gettext; libgsf should no longer be required for 0.9 if I remember things correctly), too? (I forget if libwpg had additional dependencies; I haven't built it in a while, either, and haven't had to bootstrap a new Mac that would cause me to have to re-set-up my libwp* stuff.)
