AVR-Chat

I'm going to reply to my own post.  I found the offending area in the 
configure script that just REFUSED to find avr-gcc and insisted on using 
/usr/bin/gcc which is the Apple gcc.  If I could have found a way to set 
the env var CC I could have overridden it, but I couldn't figure out how 
to do that so I hacked the configure script to point to the avr-gcc 
4.0.2 I just installed and the installer is working and it installed the 
avr-libc stuff in /opt/local/avr/include/avr.

Sheesh!
