I did with the latest snapshot and configure, make and make install 
went error free.

right, thanks, that cured some errors, but now I get a host of OpenGL 
errors.. it can't find a contrib/ogl directory that should have been 
there.. maybe I try compiling first plain vanilla and add other stuff 
later?

10.3 indeed has Bash as default shell, one needs to use export instead 
of setenv;

export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH

Thanks again.
