Friends,

I don't know if this is a libtool issue or what, but I cannot get 
either the stable (0.62.4) or latest nightly to build on my Mac 
(panther) --

        configure appears to run fine
	make aborts almost immediately with -- "ranlib: you must specify a 
MODE"

hw-cjurney:~/Downloads/freetds-0.62.4 cjurney$ ./libtool --version
ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 1.5.6 (1.1220.2.94 2004/04/10 16:27:27)

Any help would be most appreciated.  I haven't built freetds on this 
machine before although I have successfully built other GNU 
distributions.

Any help would be MUCH appreciated!
