Bypassing wxWidgets error when building Erlang from Source on OS X

I had the following error when trying to build Erlang from source on OS X:

make[3]: *** [i386-apple-darwin9.8.0/wxe_events.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [opt] Error 2
make[1]: *** [opt] Error 2
make: *** [libs] Error 2

After a quick search I uncovered this post about building without wxWidgets support (which is fine by me for running RabbitMQ Server.) So putting it all together, building and installing Erlang looks like this:

# in the erlang source directory
./configure
touch lib/wx/SKIP
make
sudo make install
