When I try building git 1.5.2 on Mac OS X 10.4.9, using "make prefix=/usr/local", it fails with:

$ git checkout v1.5.2
$ make prefix=/usr/local
...
    LINK git-http-fetch
/usr/bin/ld: can't locate file for: -lexpat
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [git-http-fetch] Error 1
But the build succeeds when I use:
$ make configure; ./configure --prefix=/usr/local; make

thanks, dave h
