Following step 3, I get this error message:

checking for TIFFOpen in -ltiff... no
configure: error: You will need to substantially rewrite libxtiff to
build libgeotiff without libtiff

You need to install tiff library and tiff headers (devel package).
It's looking to compile a test program against libtiff and not
finding the TIFFOpen function.

I don't know how you find the right packages for a Mac.


And be honest with me, if you think I'm getting in over my head before I even try using the software, maybe I should just stick with the gui stuff and wait for someone to develop a pre-compiled version?

You could certainly do "./configure --without-geotiff" and continue
on.  If you're not going to be using USGS geoTIFF DRG's or DOQQ's,
you won't need it anyway.
