Using Homebrew

brew install libtool libcryptopp fftw
replace libtoolize in autogen.sh with glibtoolize
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-cryptopp=/usr/local/Cellar/cryptopp/5.6.4/lib/
make
make install

Good point, thanks. I don't own any OSX machine to test this stuff on -- would there be some suitable method to detect that the target is OSX in autogen to avoid users hand-hacking that?

Anyway, from portability side I don't see a way to make the --with-cryptopp=..... argument filled in automatically, library paths should be set-up correctly in advance for the build environment. On other systems, the path is filled in using pkg-config. Chances that something similar could work in OSX?
