[mapserver-users] error building mapserver 3.6.3 on OS X 10.2

[Puneet Kishor]

dunno if you got my most recent message. Seems like I spoke too soon. I 
am now getting a load of gd related errors in my Apache log. (you 
should soon get that message... the mapserver listserver is kinda slow).

Wrt, OS X build how-to, please consider updating/adding to

http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?MacOS

that would consolidate all the work.

Many thanks.

Puneet.
