I have gotten it to compile pretty close to the end. It now fails at:

gcc -Wall -Wformat -Wmissing-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Wpointer- 
arith -Wextra -Wshadow -Wcast-align -Wwrite-strings -Waggregate-return  
-Wstrict-prototypes -Winline -Wredundant-decls -Wno-sign-compare -Wp,- 
D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -g -O2 - 
o .libs/event-test event_test-event-test.o  -L/opt/local/lib ../../../ 
src/.libs/libvirt.dylib -L/usr/lib /usr/lib/libxml2.dylib -licucore - 
lm /opt/local/lib/libgnutls.dylib /opt/local/lib/libtasn1.dylib -lz / 
opt/local/lib/libgcrypt.dylib /opt/local/lib/libgpg-error.dylib - 
lpthread /opt/local/lib/libintl.dylib /opt/local/lib/libiconv.dylib -lc
Undefined symbols:
   "_rpl_poll$UNIX2003", referenced from:
       _main in event_test-event-test.o
ld: symbol(s) not found
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [event-test] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

The UNIX2003 symbol does not exist in 10.4, only in 10.5. I compiled  
libvirt's dependencies under 10.5, and I am compiling libvirt under  
10.5, so I do not know why one of its dependencies is clearly compiled  
by linking to pre-10.5. The question I have is this. Where can I  
comment out the necessity for this symbol, and will doing so kill the  
libvirt remote client?
