That's pretty common for Gentoo users and it usually means that your

recognize one or more command line options. For example it is very
common to
misread 0 (zero) and O (Oh) in "gcc -O2 hello.c"
First, make sure that you're using the latest xcode (3.11 currently,
assuming you're on 10.4 or 10.5), and all I usually do is just copy/
paste the appropriate make instructions, and things work fine. Saves
on odd typo errors.
If you can copy/paste your commands and their output from Terminal,
you'll get more detailed help. Building on OS X isn't any different
from any other *nix, really, there's nothing OS X specific that you
have to worry about.
