I'd like to get wmii running on OS X 10.3.9, and am trying to get past the first step of installing the 9base package. [...]

I'm a total newbie too, but I did manage to get wmii running on Mac OS X 10.3.9. 9base didn't compile for me either. I already had a working installation of plan9port <http://swtch.com/plan9port/>, however, so I thought I'd try that. I made a symlink to it so that wmii could find it (it looks in /usr/local/9 iirc) and it seems to work fine. (As a bonus you can try the great Plan 9 tools like acme.) wmii then compiled fine for me.

(I then had some issue with X11 not finding wmii even though it was in my path. I fixed this by making symlinks in /usr/X11R6/bin to all the /usr/local/bin/wmii* executables.)
