I've spent some time reviewing the README.MacOS file. I think it would be an 
improvement to reorganize the sections. 

What do you think of organization below?

2 Developers
  2.1 Manual Package Management
    2.1.1 Development Tools
    2.1.2 Dependencies
    2.1.3 Building
  2.2 Fink
    2.2.1 Development Tools
    2.2.2 Dependencies
    2.2.3 Building
  2.3 MacPorts
    2.3.1 Development Tools
    2.3.2 Dependencies
    2.3.3 Building
