Compiling mp4v2 on Mac OS X

Anybody can help me with compiling mp4v2 on Mac OS X? I've tried configuring and compiling as per the instructions but I got a lot of errors originating from the C++ headers. The configure command was ./configure --enable-ub followed by plain make at the Terminal.

From the looks of the error messages, it seems that a number of header files are missing from my installation. The problem is that I did not remove any header files and installed Xcode as-is from the installer DMG.

It seems that these files are required but not present in my from my Xcode installation:

/usr/include/c++/4.2.1/bits/c++config.h
/usr/include/c++/4.2.1/bits/c++locale.h
/usr/include/c++/4.2.1/bits/c++io.h
/usr/include/c++/4.2.1/bits/ghtr.h
/usr/include/c++/4.2.1/bits/atomic_word.h
(and then some)

They are all included by the STL C++ headers provided by the system (all of the files that references to these missing files are in /user/include/c++/4.2.1.

Anybody can help tell me where do I get these "missing" header files?

Here are the version details of each software involved:

Snow Leopard 10.6.4
Xcode 3.2.3 (the one that came with iOS SDK 4.0)
MP4v2 1.9.1
i686-apple-darwin10-g++-4.2.1 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5664)

The following are some excerpts of the error messages:
