HI Susan,

This is a problem I've not heard about before, and the popup windows are 
surprising.

I have been building on 10.6 without problem but have not had a chance to build 
on Lion, so I'm afraid I can't offer anything good at this time.

I have, however, attached a link to a tarball archive of my 10.6-compiled 
decoders, though I don't know at all if they'll work for you.  Please let me 
know and if the problems persist I'll check on 10.7 when I get a chance.
