I got xt5250/tn5250 to work on Mac OS X by adding #include's as shown below:

--- tn5250-0.17.4/curses/cursesterm.c   2008-11-21 01:12:20.000000000 -0700

  Tn5250Session *sess = NULL;
  Tn5250Stream *stream = NULL;


Without these, I believe there are un-prototyped routines in the modules 
and the C compiler (incorrectly) uses a default prototype returning an 
int.  On 64-bit OS's where pointers are not interchangeable with int's 
this causes addressing issues.

Hope this helps.
