I have this installed, and I don't really remember how I did it, but looking at your error makes me think you should build it on a case-sensitive volume. (Note the ^ characters added above.) Just use Disk Utility to make a small (~50MB to be safe) UFS disk image, mount it, and then copy the source code there before building. Keep the UFS disk image around afterwards. It comes in handy when building Unix software on OS X :) -John
