Never mind...I figured it out. pkgconfig was not installed on my
system. A 'sudo port install pkgconfig' fixed the issue. The
./configure script should probably be modified to make that error more
obvious. (I would do that, but I'm a relative newbie and already spent
too much time banging my head figuring this issue out...)
Thanks!
