My guess is this has to do with the difference between a .so and a .dylib library.  I'm not sure what the difference is (if it's more than a name) or how to fix it, but I has been done.  Will report back with an update.  I have see this bug.  Wish to confirm it.

Howto make Bitchx work on macos:

We need to create a simple sys-libs/dlcompat ebuild. Source code for dlcompat: http://unc.dl.sourceforge.net/fink/dlcompat-20030629.tar.gz. It's a ./configure && make && make install type of package, so just an empty ebuild with SRC_URI to the above suffices. 

We need to add a macos ? (sys-libs/dlcompat) dependency to the bitchx ebuild.

The patches to make bitchx work:

http://bitchx.darwinports.com/dports/irc/bitchx/files/patch-Makefile.in
http://bitchx.darwinports.com/dports/irc/bitchx/files/patch-source__server.c

I passed --without-gtk --without-ssl to the bitchx ./configure . May work with gtk and ssl, not tested. Feel free to test. 

To get past this compile error, for "-DBIND_8_COMPAT" in the CFLAGS. 

Have tested this. Works fine.

I followed the instructions in #3, and now there's a new compile error:

gcc -shared autobot.o ../dllinit.o -fPIC -o autobot.so

Instructions in #3 work perfectly, exactly the same as the darwinports build!

[Comment 6 Kito (RETIRED) 2004-10-02 11:24:06 UTC]

FYI OS X >=10.3 ships with the dlcompat library, so don't bother writing an ebuild for it.

way pre-prefix stuff ;)
