[Bf-committers] Diff patch for Intel Macs

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi Doug,

I've replace my old iBook with a new powerbook yesterday, so finally  
could check on the patch!
The changes look fine, but before I commit there's a couple of issues  
to solve;

- OpenAL indeed doesn't work yet, that will take some work (hopefully  
not me!)
- The darwin ports libintl (and the one I compiled myself) doesn't run  
without linking with libiconv.a too. Is that your experience too?
- OpenEXR has a new release with intel mac support, that needs a new  
thread library too, so the makefiles are not compatible for other  
versions then
- I only fixed make, not scons yet

What I can do is make all precompiled libs available in cvs lib/  
directory (including exr), so a checkout and compile will become pretty  
painless.

But, before I do so, would like to hear some feedback from others who  
got it to compile for OSX... anything else to be aware of?
