Tried again with source pulled fresh from CVS.  Configured with:

./configure --with-emacs=/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs --with-gnus=/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/gnus

Finally got it to compile!  However, invoking with M-x gnus gives the ff. error:

Wrong type argument: arrayp, nil

Any ideas anyone?  Pulled up http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=110778 in Google but I'm not sure this fix is applicable to Carbon Emacs.  The backtrace (username masked out) follows:
