Thanks for checking that. I don't have a directory '/usr/local (from
old Mac)/lib' on my machine, but that nomenclature sounds like
something that Migration Assistant might generate - possibly that was
added to a library list somewhere and the config process picked it up
from there.
I understand that 'tetex is dead' and given my druthers I wouldn't be
installing it - it's huge and I don't directly use it. Unfortunately
though it is a dependency of octave, so there's no choice.

Digging in it appears that the 'config.cache' file wasn't cleaned
out prior to distribution and a bad definition for one of the
library paths was left in resulting in the following entry in the
xdvik Makefile:
x_ldflags=-L/usr/local (from old Mac)/lib -L/usr/X11/lib
Removing the " (from old Mac) " in the Makefile allowed the build
to proceed to completion.
tetex is distributed without a config.cache file. That file must
have been generated on your machine during the build process. Also,
I downloaded the tetex 3.0 source code and found no occurrences of
the string "from old Mac" anywhere in it. Do you have a directory "/
usr/local (from old Mac)" on your Mac? If so, try moving it
elsewhere or getting rid of it. Then try "sudo port clean --work
tetex" and try installing again.
Also, note that there is a bug titled "tetex is dead" which you
might want to read to see if "tetex" is really the software package
you want to be using:
