[Planner] Planner and OS X

[Ken Gordon <ksg telusplanet net>]

I can see from the archives that people have been around this before, 
so I apologize for raising it again. But I'm stymied.

Attempting to install Planner on OS X (10.3.7), I think I've finally 
got all the libraries installed (and the -dev versions), and everything 
nearly works. I can configure,make (after doing the appropriate 
switching about of the libtools) and make install the released 0.12. At 
which point I give a small cheer, then when I then try to run planner, 
I get:

> (planner 15752) "GLib-GObject-WARNING **" "cannot register existing 
> type `PlannerGanttModel'"
>
> (planner 15752) "GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **" "file gtype.c" "line 1937 
> (g_type_add_interface_static)" "assertion `G_TYPE_IS_INSTANTIATABLE 
> (instance_type)' failed"
>
> (planner 15752) "GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **" "file gobject.c" "line 615 
> (g_object_new)" "assertion `G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT (object_type)' failed"
> dyld "/opt/local/bin/epiphany-bin version mismatch for library" 
> "/opt/local/lib/libgobject-2.0.0.dylib (compatibility version of user" 
> "601.0.0 greater than library's version" 201.0.0)

So, as suggested in one of the archived exchanges, I turn to the cvs 
version,  get all the macros I can find into my aclocal.m4, and when I 
try to autogen (with, as in the configure above, --enable-python=no), I 
get:

> "aclocal: configure.in: 17: macro `AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0' not found in

Can anyone provide any guidance? Thanks.
