I think the full list of non-system packages is useful
in order to work on the build system for OSX.
For example if at some point soemeone will want to make the MXE build
system work on OSX (Jordi?), all of those dependencies will have
to be fetched and built by the build scripts.
I think the reason why Anirhuda's build script is not currently
portable is that he had installed macports and he was assuming
that many of those ports were not required just because he had
them installed in the macports tree.

yes, that would be much better.
I'll look into a way to get a
more structured list.

As far as OSX is concerned I think a good rule of thumbs would be that
it is useful to know about any dependencies that are not installed by default
with the system.

According to the rule of thumbs above, I would not list the kernel but I did
have
to list the c and c++ standard libraries as Octave won't link to the ones
shipped
by default with the mac.
