This sounds like something that should be detected in the ./configure  
script.  My automake/autoconf M4 foo is weak these days, so I can't  
really offer any suggestions.

Getting the command line builds working would be great for projects  
like MacPorts and Fink, too.  An Xcode project would definitely be  
nice to have.

When I build using Xcode, I don't get a crash.  It's possibly my  
libaxl build is busted, too.  I had to finagle its Makefiles a bit to  
get it to build, as well.  Though, the backtrace looks like its all in  
Vortex.
