Can you try the macports from here:
 	http://hinrg.cs.jhu.edu/git/?p=ports.git

They follow the build procedure from deb packages. I tested them on 
MacOS X 10.5 (leopard) on both G4 and Intel and it compiles without errors 
the Blink for iris. You can grad the binaries for G4 from here:

If it doesn't work please let me know. :-)
