Well, I tried the following ./configure followed by make test and it 
terminated as shown below:

./configure \
--enable-tests \
--prefix=/Library/htdig-3.2 \
--with-cgi-bin-dir=/Library/WebServer/Documents/CGI-Executables \
--with-image-dir=/Library/WebServer/Documents/htdig/images \
--with-search-dir=/Library/WebServer/Documents/htdig/search \
--enable-static \
--disable-shared

[... lots os stuff ...]
ld: Undefined symbols:
WordType::instance
make[2]: *** [testnet] Error 1
make[1]: *** [check-am] Error 2
make: *** [check-recursive] Error 1

It didn't crash, that's for sure, but it does look like the make test 
failed. I didn't try make install and actually running it yet, thought 
I'd wait to hear back from the list.
