I never use the Build script, because I need settings that are not 
standard. E.g. I need to disable mkstemps() because otherwise the 
binaries I produce will not work on some earlier versions of Mac OS X. 
Here is a snippet of my main Makefile:

#DEVELOP=.development
DEVELOP=
TARGET=source${DEVELOP}
PREFIX=/usr/local/Build/TeXLive${DEVELOP}
WITHX11CONF=--with-x

#MYCC=gcc2
#MYCXX=g++2
#SYNCFORCE=-f

configure-tex:
         (cd TeXLive/Build/${TARGET}; CPPFLAGS=-no-cpp-precomp \
          ac_cv_func_mkstemps=no xpdf_cv_func_mkstemps=no \
                 PREFIX=${PREFIX} CC=${MYCC} CXX=${MYCXX} \
                 ./configure --enable-multiplatform ${WITHX11CONF} \
                 --enable-ipc --prefix=${PREFIX} 
--datadir=${PREFIX}/share)

# -no-cpp-precomp needed for ncurses-5.3
compile-tex:
         (cd TeXLive/Build/${TARGET}; \
                 CC=${MYCC} CXX=${MYCXX} make)

install-tex:
         (cd TeXLive/Build/${TARGET}; \
                 CC=${MYCC} CXX=${MYCXX} make install)

clean-tex:
         (cd TeXLive/Build/${TARGET}; make clean)

distclean-tex:
         (cd TeXLive/Build/${TARGET}; make distclean)
