Ok there are a few ways to get the crossfire client to work on OSX.

Fink is a good friend of mine :-) http://www.finkproject.org/
Fink is working on bringing opensource to Darwin/OSX.

There is a version of the the cfclient on fink but it is version 1.7 which does not have the bells and whistles that are included in 1.10 besides why run 1.7 when you can just run 1.10.

Your going to have to compile 1.10 from source until some one (don't know who) updates the fink database.

Go to your local neighborhood crossfire-client download site and grab 1.10.

Just about all of your errors from ./configure can be fixed by installing the fink packages for them, not including the libpng.  

I tried and tried (so did leaf) but we cant get the ./configure to recognize the libpng from fink so you have to compile libpng from source too.

Go to http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/libpng.html and grab the SOURCE CODE (I used the one with the configure script) and compile it.

After installing the libpng crossfire-client can be compiled and run.
