Ben / Doug,

The 3.5.7 alpha release includes experimental support for OS X.  
Hopefully it will work out of the box on Darwin. 

Try:

  ftp://ftp.remotesensing.org/pub/libtiff/tiff-v3.5.7-alpha2.tar.gz

Note, if you don't want JPEG support make sure you disable the 
OJPEG_SUPPORT flag in tiffconf.h.  It is just on temporarily.

Does OSX require ranlib be run on .a files to setup the index?  If anyone
can provide a patch to the libtiff build/install to fix this I will apply
it.
