I definitely ought to update the install docs, but here's two paths to install:

The classic approach will always work:

    autoconf
   ./configure [--without-xsel]
   make
   sudo make install

If you're on OS X, you may not have autoconf installed, but you can use the new 
native Xcode build:

   mkdir -p /tmp/fish_build
   xcodebuild -scheme root SYMROOT=/tmp/fish_build
   sudo ditto /tmp/fish_build/Debug/base /
   sudo ditto /tmp/fish_build/Debug/base/etc /etc/

that last line is currently necessary because /etc is a symlink on OS X, and 
ditto won't go through symlinks. Once I get my act together and make it work 
with 'xcodebuild install' this will be simpler.

Hope that helps,
_fish
