Compiling 1.8.2 on OS X

[Eric Schwartz]

I'm running Mac OS X 10.2.5, and trying to compile gnucash on it.  I'm 
having trouble with engine-helpers.c though:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I/sw/include -L/sw/lib 
-I../../lib/libc -I../../src/gnc-module -I/usr/local/include/gnucash

-I/sw/include -I/sw/include -L/sw/lib -Wall -Wunused -Werror -c

It appears that gcc is for some odd reason having trouble with variadic 
macros.  This makes no sense to me, as the gcc on this box is based on 
gcc3.1, and I know gcc has supported variadic macros for some time 
before that.

Any clues?
