This document is probably obsolete. Anyone who will undertake the task of
porting Rivet on Macintosh is welcome to join us in the effort of supporting
Rivet for new plattforms. (mxmanghi: 2015-01-09)

Building Rivet isn't 100% turnkey under Mac OS X, but it's getting better
and hopefully it won't be too long until it builds without tweaking.
In the meantime, here's what we do:
Build and install tclsh8.4 and apache from darwinports, plus other stuff
like postgres. Go get Pgtcl off of gborg.postgresql.org and get it built
and installed. (If you want to use a SQL database, this is one way to go
about it, and we've had good results with it.)
Run the configure script:
tclsh8.4 ./configure.tcl -prefix /opt/local -with-apxs /opt/local/sbin/apxs -verbose -with-tclconfig /opt/local/lib/tclConfig.sh
It will complain about several undefined variables.
Edit configs.tcl and change
set ::configs::TCL_SHLIB_LD {}
to be
set ::configs::TCL_SHLIB_LD {cc -dynamiclib -undefined suppress -flat_namespace}
