Just to add to this, but I have had slightly more success building on  
my Intel iMac.  I've been trying periodically as various libraries  
get updated in Fink.  I just tried the tar ball for 1.9.4, and it  
compiles fine for me and when I run it it gets past the splashscreen  
with no problems.   You may want to make sure you're fully updated  
and review some of the mac building instructions posted in the  
archives (I believe on the developer list.)

However, even though I get farther then you do, I will say it  
consistently crashes when I try to open a register -- from looking at  
the crashreporter logs it appears to be a problem in libgnomecanvas.

As Neil mentioned, Intel support in Fink just isn't there yet, and  
we'll just have to wait until there is a final release of the 10.4  
Fink tree with Intel support.
