:-( The mind boggles... Sorry. You can get a version of expect out
of our gcc3 cvs repository. :-( Apparently we do have some local
mods.
I added a -darwin* like this:
*** ./config.sub.~1~ Mon Feb 11 18:00:55 2002

and it built up. I didn't test the result to see exactly how well it
worked, but I suspect it should be very, very close. I did try running
it and it appeared to work. There is an OS kernel bug on 6.x that
causes expect to miss some data on the pty, I'd recommend that you not
use 6.x to test on. 7.x should be ok.
I got in contact with the Author of expect and he even happened to
have a Mac :-) but he didn't figure out how to install the developer
tools on it. I told him how to do it and never heard from him again
... this was in february this year. So I assumed nothing has changed
so far.
I'll cc him so that he can have the opportunity to add support for our
fine platform. :-)
