	Alas MacOS X doesn't have something exactly equivalent to ldd (or I 
haven't been able to figure it out).  There are some environment 
variables that can be set to print out what dynamic libraries it loads.
As I mentioned in my other e-mail I have figured out that it was indeed 
a problem with emacs linking against Apple's X11 libraries rather the 
Darwin Ports version of fontconfig.
