how about a 'snowleopardfixes' library port?

[Ken Cunningham]

thanks,

I thought of that, but 

sudo install_name_tool -add_rpath /opt/local/lib /opt/local/lib/libsnowleopardfixes.a.dylib

didn't solve the issue. Sorry I left that step out.

then I went big-gun and set the DYLIB_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH

but that didn't work either.

I'll keep plugging.

As Ryan says, if the upstream would just improve their use of glib a bit and test for getline, then we wouldn't need to go through all this nonsense. But it is very very common that they don't check for getline.
