Were you ever able to successfully build Ipopt on your Intel Mac?

I am attempting to configure on a MacBook Pro running 10.5.3 and  
getting the error ...

checking size of int *... configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (int  
*), 77
See `config.log' for more details.
configure: error: /bin/sh '../../Ipopt/configure' failed for Ipopt

I have the following compilers available:

gcc version 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)            (from Apple's dev  
tools)
gfortran : gcc version 4.3.0 (GCC)                   (installed via  
fink)
g95      : gcc version 4.0.3 (g95 0.91!) Apr 18 2008 (installed via  
fink)

I'm happy to provide the config.log file if someone could help me  
figure this out.

Thanks,
