Adding the iip user in OS/X

It seems there is a difference in the sources we started with.  I
logged in as root, doing an 'su' command, and as root, I did a 'make'
followed by a 'make install'.  The second make failed.  The latest
docs combine OS X and *nix, and state that there needs to be a iip
user.

It should have worked the same for me as you.

What version are you using?  Did you get a different Makefile for Mac,
or did you use the one it came with?  I'm wondering if I need to grab
an older version.

As a last resort, I will try the 'make install-local' command as
someone suggested, but that's not as clean and I'd like to avoid it.
I prefer a system-wide install then the application isn't user
dependant.
