I forgot to motivate the change. Configure runs config.guess to figure
out what kind of machine it's running on. That file in turn uses the C
preprocessor to figure out if it's 32 or 64 bit. If we don't setup
devkit before running config.guess, the preprocessor might not be
available and configure will think the mac is a 32 bit machine.

Hello,
Please review this minor tweak to configure which enables the use of a
portable devkit on Macosx. Also included is the script used to
generate the devkit. The plan is use this internally on our build
servers to ease installation and setup of our machines.
