MacOS X build set up

[Bill Northcott]

Hi alex

I have now thoroughly tested a variety of Apple 3.1 and 3.3 compilers. 
They all crash in the same ten programs.  These problems have been 
reported to Apple.  They have usually fixed such inconsistences between 
their build and the GNU one in the past.  So hopefully they will fix this.

I pulled the gcc with
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:address@hidden:/cvsroot/gcc co -r 
gcc-3_3-branch gcc

It was configured --prefix to install well away from the system compiler, 
--enable-languages=c,c++,objc to save time and --enable-shared=incase some 
of the libraries got used in the compiles.

Sed is version 4.05 and gperf is 2.7.2.  I suspect that main thing for sed 
is to have a GNU rather than FreeBSD version.

I also use different (to the cvs) OBJCFLAGS for Apple and GNU compilers
In configure.in and libobjc configure.in
For GNU:  -fgnu-runtime -Wall -fno-strict-aliasing -Wno-import 
-Wno-protocol -Wno-long-long
For Apple:  -fgnu-runtime -Wall -fno-strict-aliasing -Wno-import 
-Wno-protocol -Wno-long-double

That it is it.  It compiles everything, but fails to link in src/defobj 
because of some Makefile problem that adds the avcall library into the 
libs list twice.
