What I got to work was to copy (probably should've linked in  
retrospect as this method will not result in proper updates when/if I  
do an update of those libraries) those files and put them in the  
location specified in the INSTALL file (the note said this was only  
required pre-3.6.0, but even with 3.8.2 it was what I needed to do).  
Note that I also couldn't find the fourth of the files (contrib/ 
dosdjgpp/port.h) listed but it still seemed to work. The three files  
I found were in three different spots and two of them were in very  
odd places (qt4 directories associated with Fink sources).
