Building OpenJFX on Mac OS X 10.9.2 / XCode 5.1 / XCode 4.3.3

[Stephen F Northover]

Put this in your gradle.properties file:

MACOSX_SDK_PATH = 
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.8.sdk

We need to document this on the wiki.  Will do that Monday.  Gotta go now.
