The steps I ultimately followed were very similar:

/opt/local/bin/port install curl imagemagick openmotif pcre db42 lcms proj gdal libpng libxml2 shapelib

cd libgeotiff-1.2.2
make clean
./configure --prefix=/opt/local
make
make install
ranlib /opt/local/lib/libgeotiff.a

port -f install xastir

xastir

I'm not sure what the error means, but I installed Xastir on OS X by
following these instructions:

Ports for the dependencies and compile Xastir from source. These
instructions may workaround your error.

OK, I built xastir from source on Centos 5.2 Intel Linux, without a hickup. Emboldened by this experience, I was thinking that it would be nice to
also run Xastir on my laptop.

After messing around for several days trying to get the various libraries and so forth compiled and in place, and then getting an error when I tried to run it .... I found a mac port called xastir. So, I issued the command port -f install xastir. Running it yields this error message (which is
similar to what I was getting when I compiled by hand)...
