Building on Mac with latest Xcode

[Kevin Rushforth]

I know that David DeHaven looked into this. Maybe he will have something 
to add?

For production, we need to use gcc (not clang) and the 10.7 SDK, but 
having a solution that makes it easy for developers to build with latest 
would be a good thing.
