[slim-vim] Compiling with GUI?

Hi all,

   Compiling Larry's vim70 repo on OS X/Intel, configure doesn't seem  
to want to enable the Carbon GUI. configure without GUI arguments  
picks X as the default GUI; using

./configure --without-x --disable-gpm --prefix=/usr/local/ --enable- 
gui=carbon  --enable-eclinterp --enable-perlinterp --enable-cscope -- 
enable-rubyinterp --enable-tclinterp

   gives

checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... (cached) yes
checking if X11 header files can be found... yes
checking for _XdmcpAuthDoIt in -lXdmcp... (cached) no
checking for IceOpenConnection in -lICE... (cached) yes
checking for XpmCreatePixmapFromData in -lXpm... (cached) yes
checking if X11 header files implicitly declare return values... no
checking --enable-gui argument... Sorry, carbon GUI is not supported

   and builds a perfectly-functional terminal-only Vim.

   Googling doesn't seem to yield an answer; on a Mac the Vim source  
is *supposed* to build Vim.app by default, so I'm a little confused.

   Any thoughts?

   Thanks,
-R
