How to compile 0.9.x plugin (OSX)

[itbe]

I am trying to compile the latest source 0.9.8.a (tarball) on MAC OS X (10.4.11).

I am trying to find out how to disable Fink, I dont see any .cshrc or .bashrc in my home directory:

drwxr-xr-x 13 xxxx xxxx 442 Jan 18 18:42 .
drwxrwxr-t 6 root admin 204 Jan 18 18:33 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 xxxx xxxx 3 Jan 18 18:33 .CFUserTextEncoding

drwxr-xr-x 4 xxxx xxxx 136 Jan 18 18:33 Public
drwxr-xr-x 5 xxxx xxxx 170 Jan 18 18:33 Sites

Can you please help.
