This is a Mac-specific bug (omission) in xtide's configure.in file that makes it fail to determine where the X11 libraries are. Look in configure.in around line 50, and you will see some code that looks for "libXaw" with various extensions such as ".so" and ".a". On the Mac, the proper extension is ".dylib". Expanding this code to look for "libXaw.dylib" in addition to the others fixes the problem. Note, there are two lines that need to be changed, around lines 53 and 58. I would send you a patch, but I'm not quite up to speed on the Macports system yet.

it is still broken: here is an excerpt from the logfile. I'm on SL-64 bit. I believe the errors are the same as of 10 months ago.
