I co'ed the last version from CVS - here are my findings:

As Weston mentioned, Fink turns out to be a pain
I had to manually update to a higher version of autoconf to run 'bootstrap'

>./configure --enable-osx-istream-hack --enable-shared=no

no complains

>make

make worked all but the link phase of exrdisplay,
somehow in the makefile the fink and GL libraries are missing

I've manually appended to the line:

" -lfltk_gl -lfltk  -framework AGL -framework OpenGL  -framework Carbon \
-framework ApplicationServices"

Yes - I like the Object C wrapper suggestion; Quicktime component would
be great also - I'm available to coop on the QT thing.
(I've got a DPX/Cineon plugin near ready as well, but that would become
obsolete now we've got OpenEXR! I love it)

Doesn't work for me :(

The viewer from <http://www.mesadynamics.com> works very nice;
no source though ...

Best regards,
