Please try 1.4.7, it's the latest release.

I so OSX's crazy linking.

My suggestion on this fragment is that you are somehow invoking the
wrong libtool - /usr/lib/libtool is not correct, it should be running
the libtool program in the source tree.  The invocation that make runs
is
  /bin/sh ./libtool ...
or should be, it's a couple of lines above what you quoted.

For what it's work I have an OSX box and it's part of my development and
release testing cycle [pause while I check] .. 1.4.7 works for me.

Well, sort of.  For reasons rather complex to explain, you need to
enable both the rss-tag-soup and rdfxml parsers in the released 1.4.7:
--enable-parsers="rss-tag-soup rdfxml"

This should be fixed in CVS raptor, or at least better.
